Can I see a picture of this "adaptor"? And how does the other unit looks like also? Please. Zoltan

This adapter connects to the propane tank fill valve and works by allowing you to transfer propane from a disposable tank into your main tank. It does not installed. You use it when needed and then have to store it somewhere for next time.

Hi Denis or others,

I also ordered the adaptor but from the Amazon link in the below message.

It arrived today and I feel like I must be missing something. How do I attach this thing to the existing propane plumbing?

One end attaches to a small tank and the other end is identical to that on a large gas grill that would go into a typical grill tank.

Somehow I thought this just attached directly to the filler on the Westfalia propane tank.

What am I missing?

Remember being blind I can’t see the pictures or reed the small paper that came with it that might answer my question. I thought from the add only this item was needed. Now I suspect I need to find another item to go with it.

Can someone fill me in?

thanks,

Eric Caron 85 GL Auto Westfalia
