Propane System Issue
Dave, dont rule out that the auto shutdown feature is working and
there is infact a leak. I learned that the manual tank valve must be
fully opened or fully closed to seat proper. My 94 needs 110
electric via inverter or other source for the stove to light. I dont
know if the dash mounted AT switch will shut down the gas but it is
worth a look. Hope it does not stand in the way of your trip
