So I have this new to me'80 Westy and when I took it to the propane guy
he over filled it, I'm pretty sure.  When I turn off the gas it doesn't
leak, but when I turn it on it does...even when I open it all the way.
I'm wondering if it might not leak if I could get the pressure down.  I
don't understand the principle the overflow valve works on. If I open
the overflow valve will it stop leaking when tank reaches the proper
level?
