Propane question

Hunter1100 · 2007-09-22 16:29:54

I just got a tank of propane from use with my we m1911. after using the adapter it sounds like some gas is being released even with no adapter attached. Its not constantly coming out every minute or so there is a release is it normal or what? And how do you know when the mags are full I done want to blow the seals

Probably some dirt in the Propane tank holding the valve open slightly. Push the probe of the adapter into the tank valve for a second so some gas vents. That should clear the valve of cack. Listen to the valve for a minute after to insure it's not hissing at all.

Good to hear. Leaky propane tanks can be dangerous if not kept in a ventilated area (they shouldnt really be kept at all). Escaping gas can fill an area and though there probably isnt enough to blow up your house it could cause a nasty fire.
