Subject:      propane filling problem
Content-Type: Text/Plain; Charset=US-ASCII

Hi everyone, We just bought our second Westy (87), but are having a problem filling the propane tank. After filling it to 1.5 gallons, we found propane venting through a little hole in the bottom of the port for filling our tank. My guess is that the auto-stop mechanism was not working correctly. A similar venting has sometimes occurred on our 88. I welcome your thoughts on the cause of the problem, as well as how to prevent it in the future, and how to stop the venting once it begins. Thanks in advance! Lee Kouns 87 & 88 Westys
