Bring it to a propane place and let them test it. If there is any liquid in
there adding compressed air cam make the mixture inside flammable. It is
very rare for the tank itself to leak unless it is very rusty. There can be
excessive rust under the ID tag. A tank leak is usually very easy to find.

I have a propane leak at some point in my 85 westy. Is there a way to fill
with just compressed air to look for leak? It has the original tank and
fittings. Thanks all.
