Rubbish George... the air would not ignite anything... the mixture of oxygen and propane at 20:1 is highly explosive but wont explode unless its ignited.. by a spark.. its whats known as an explosive atmosphere... the point is that opening the valve will not replace any remaining gas in the cylinder ... gas travels from a higher pressure to a lower one... once its reached atmospheric the flow stops leaving traces of propane in the cylinder unless flushed out by something...
you were just lucky... others might not be...Last edited by Lee Roberts; 13-09-2010 at 04:00 PM. Reason: added red to text and adjusted the size
