I think you have a better chance of getting hit by lighting than causing a fire with your propane on. What do the people do who have cars that run on propane, I guess they have to leave theirs on
We're all free to think what we wish. We are both basing our decisions on what we consider to be need vs perceived risk. I had a pickup with a dual fuel, propane/gasoline system. Automotive propane systems do not use portable tanks and are engineered to operate in hot engine compartments as an engine fuel system. All the combustion takes place inside the engines combustion chambers the same as burning gas or diesel, not as open flames in combustion chambers open to the atmosphere.
I'm not trying to tell people what to do but when it comes to this issue, an alternate view regarding the need to run with propane on and the possible risks, seems to be some sort of heresy to many on this forum.
