I'm having a couple issues with a 95 Eurovan I just purchased. When I try to light the stove, it will light briefly and then go out. Any suggestions? Also, the heater fan goes on when I turn on the thermostat but no heat. What might be the cause of that?

Well, I'll start with pics of my ugly '95 tank and connections, but all LP systems work:

Note there is a physical gauge on the frontside, circular gauge. I know my tank is full, there is a hard-to-see needle pegged over to the right, indicating a full tank.

So, if your "LEVELS TEST" switch under the sink shows LP tank full, you can check that gauge on the tank to see if it matches the LEVELS TEST reading inside.

If your LP tank is indeed full you'll have to go through the entire LP system starting from the tank. Checking every hose, connection, tube, orifice.

One thing, I know my furnace works fine, but it takes about 30 seconds after the fan turns on to feel heat from the output vent.

I wish you the best of luck, hopefully it's something simple.

Another note, the fill connection should have a rubber gasket. Mine didn't, I found them here - http://www.aaapropane.com/
