I'm not sure what you mean by 'vent' :H
Did she close the 'service valve'?
Did she hook up propane hose/nozzle to the 'fill' connection?
Was the gasket there?
To the right of the fill port in picture is the 'bleeder valve' .
It should be Cracked OPEN when filling.....vapor comes out and then when it starts spitting liquid you STOP filling and close bleeder valve. Bleeder valve is set at 80% liquid level.
Sound like bleeder is still open or has failed.
Tank needs to be empty to replace.
