Hi all,

I have a 85 Westy and I've found a small propane leak on the threads
between the regulator and the splitter box-thing (has the 2 gas lines
coming from it).  What's the best way to fix it?  Should I just tap
on the box with a hammer to tighten it?  Or should I dismantle the
whole thing and put sealer tape on the threads?  It's not a very big
leak...something that just a minute turn would fix, but I don't know
if this would damage the 2 lines somehow if they're meant to be in
this exact location.

Thanks!
Alan
