Not so easy for us to do as we would have to heat the water, carry it up to the cockpit, disconnect the propane and take it out of the locker it is in ( because that does not drain) and then pour the water over it. Not easy, but perhaps worth it if we need to know where we stand propane- wise.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17742543989393106517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-67578293920322897.post-73460027437838122242018-05-14T20:32:26.971+13:002018-05-14T20:32:26.971+13:00There's a technique for determining how much p...There's a technique for determining how much propane is in a tank. You pour hot water down the side of the tank, give it a few seconds, then feel down the side of the tank for where it turns from cold to hot. That's the line of where the liquid gas is. It has to do with the fact that gas vapor inside the tank absorbs heat faster than the liquid. It works great.

You pour a bit of boiling water (maybe just hot water--it's been a long time) down the side of the tank, give it a few seconds, and then feel down the tank for where the line between hot and cold is. That's how much propane is in the tank. It has to do with the fact that the vapor absorbs heat much faster than the liquid does, so you can see how much is still in the tank. Not sure if it's practical in wherever you keep the tank, but maybe it is, and voila, an easy test.
