My 2002 Adventurer camper has a propane regulator which does not feature a selector to choose which of the 2 tanks to draw fuel from. Is this a totally manual, non-switching system? ie: open 1 tank's shut-off valve for fuel and when that tank is empty, close it's valve and open the 2nd tank's shut-off valve...
Second question: when one tank is empty can I disconnect it from the regulator while the other tank is open and supplying fuel?
#1 Could be manual but I have doubts. Post a picture or the make/model of the regulator. Regulator has no red/green indicator? I would swap to an automatic before the next trip.
#2 Yes you should be able to swap tanks without losing propane. You will know immediately if you have an issue. Worst case... casually reach over and turn the other valve off.
