Ran out of propane for the shop heater the other day and had to get a project done for daughter moving into her new apartment...
So I just took a bbq bottle down the street as the propane place is closed and are the only ones that fill my big bottles and swapped it at the grocery store. First thing I noticed was I didn't recognize the company doing it. Got home hooked up the bottle and gas is coming out as I hook it up. Seems the hand valve leaks and only the backup valve is holding the gas in...
Fire up the heater and wow does it stink. It smells like I was running a diesel or kerosene heater. I had another bbq bottle nearly empty and it burned nice and clean.
So for the propane gurus what contaminates in their propane would make it smell so bad?
