Help Listees About an hour ago, I tried to get the propane tank filled at Sabo RV dealers in Columbus, OH. They said "we do not fill those things." Then I went to Jerry Greer RV in Sunbury, OH - They do not fill propane on Saturdays. Then I went to Post RV in Columbus, OH, and after much discussion on how much he hated to fill those things, the man reluctantly tried to fill it. He hooked up the hose to the filler pipe started filling it and the auto-stop shut off after 1/10 of a gallon. I asked him if he opened the bleeder valve. He responded that he knew what he was doing, and that these things did not have a bleeder valve. I showed him where it was and he opened it, and it let out propane until he put on his rubber gloves and closed it. -- He said it was full, and no charge. After driving the Westy home, I opened the bleeder valve myself and it is still letting propane out. -- Is this normal? Is it overfilled? Have I got a problem? Thanks for any help.
