Periodically someone manages to blow the side of a house in with a
propane grill, too. Compressed hydrocarbon gasses are rather
dangerous, and will burn on contact with air and an ignition source --
and will explode if conditions are right. Rather messy, the military

A plugged trap results in very poor performance, black smoke (if any),
and a horrible whistling when the donut in the exhaust manifold blows
out. Sounds like a Stuka on a vertical dive. No turbo effect, since
there is no exhaust flow to speak of.

I believe this more than the exploding compressor story that was passed

I am willing to bet that your sensor wires are cruddy,
since they tend to get nasty near the bottom of the
tank first. Once you get everything cleaned and
reassembled, I'm sure it will work as new.
Just be careful and don't get ham-handed around the
sensor wires - they can break.
