The new filler has no connection for it. What should I do about >this nipple? Cap it? Recommendations are appreciated. THIS IS NOT A RECOMMENDATION: You MUST put a manual bleed valve on the end of that tube. Just for a start, nobody on earth will fill it for you if you don't <g>. When filling, the manual procedure is to hook up the propane hose, then crack the bleed valve open a trifle. Start filling, and when liquid issues from the bleed valve, stop filling then close the bleed valve. david David Beierl - dbeierl@ibm.net |
