Wow this means that lots of Ontario campers will be on the market
cheap!?? I have a 21 year old Westfalia from BC and the tank
has never been changed.?? I live in Alberta and over the years
I have owned get this 21 Eurovan Campers and Rialtas/?? Some
were bought in Canada but most were imported from the USA.?? I
have never had issues with the propane tanks.? I have replaced the
propane valve controls because idiots have taken pipewrenches and broken
them, but I usually go to the propane supplier and give me 4 or 5 from a
barrel of condemned barbecue tanks.?? Since your camper was
converted by Winnebago call them and see if they can source you a new
tank/?? I think you may find if they have new tanks they are
manufactured in 1995.?? I mean the production run on these
campers ended in North America more than 10 years ago.???
I have owned both the Winnebago and Westfalia converted campers and I am
pretty sure the tanks are not identical.?? German tanks for the
Eurovan Westfalias are still available from the fatherland from
vwbusshop?
click on the Union Jack for English. and find the T4 camper.
I just this day replaced the?? 22 YEAR OLD? group 29 80
amp hours dryfit brand camper battery with 2 group 27 Walmart 120 amp
hour marine batteries.?? Too bad I could not source another one
of those batteries here.!
Good luck

Turned on the propane last week and
it made a hissing noise - figured it was probably the knob or a
connection. When I spoke to a local rv dealer he said he was unable to
work on the tank as it was older than ten years and would need to be
replaced. Apparently this is a requirement in Ontario. Have any Ontario
owners run into this before and is there any way around it? Thought about
having it checked next time we were in the states. or do they have the
same rule?
