OH. How I know the proper name of the Visual Overfill Indicator Valve....
One of my Summer Campgrounds was hosting a Pump Jockey class in the family center. They were reviewing their answers to the final test while I was doing my morning internet run. The question came up.
Another question: What happens if you mix air and propane in the proper ration and there is a flame or spark?
Before anyone could answer I piped up with: "You land 2 counties over"
THe room.... broke up in laughter.. and when it died down the instructor said "Exactly".
So be cautious around vaporized propane. NOTE Gasoline vapor... I hear all the time from folks afraid of propane (For just that reason)
THe same amount of gasoline vapor. properly mixed with air... 3 counties over.
