I came across this thread and just thought I'd post some pics of my propane locker propex install in my 93 Eurovan which currently needs a transmission. Locker is vented out the bottom and side and takes a standard tank which makes refill a breeze.

I wonder if a Espar fuel pump will work on a Webasto. Both heaters seem to be identical... even the fuel pump electric plugs are the same.

This Espar fuel pump is a High Altitude model. I'm considering trying this on my Webasto since I couldn't get the manual override sequence that I posted a few pages back to work. Heater kept coding out while camping at 8,000ft

I don't think that works. I read a thread off this site that measured fuel flow of various pumps and the effect they had on different heaters that came in for repair. Could have been on older models more than current versions, but I still would guess it will not work.
