Thanka I was wondering how to get my xtra tank I got from a donor equipped

fridge. Who has those parts again?  Thanks!!Velma 82diesel 1.6 na westy

I have the regular manual bleeder valve and separate fill valve.  I have
long been looking for a way to hook up a disposable tank to the fill valve
in the situation that my tank goes empty at a remote location or
campground.  So I found a good deal on the connector and valve that would
go on the end of the fill hose at a propane filling station.  Now I'm
wondering if I made the appropriate fittings to connect the disposable tank
to that, would the pressure in the tank be enough to open the fill valve on
the van's tank?  At the filling station they run that pump that pushes the
propane into the tank.  How much pressure is that?

I'm not sure if it's legal in all US states to replace propane fittings on
a RV tank, but you can buy the fittings.
