If this tank has not been refilled in a long time, there are two things
to check... Does it have a triangular knob on the valve? That indicates
that the valve is equipped with the MANDATORY overfill prevention device
(OPD). Also look for a manufacturing date stamped on the tank indicating
it's age. Over 12 years, or without the overfill prevention, it is
illegal to fill the tank.

Yep, propane. Liquefied Propane Gas to be exact. A grill tank should
cost about $10-12 to get filled. From empty. Try to find a place that
will only charge you for the amount you buy by weight. Some places
just charge a flat fee regardless of how much was left in your tank
before filling. My local ACE Hardware has good prices and only
charges for what it took to fill me up. I think the standard grill
tanks are 20# and the little green ones for your lanters are 1#. A
lot of the aluminum marine grade tanks are about half that.

Listers,
I think this was covered in the past, but I'm getting older and I
forgot the answer.
In my 37+, I have a tank labelled LPG for my stove. I need to get
it refilled.
Is this propane? The same propane used for bbq grills? Or is LPG
something a little different?
All the best,
Edd
