Default LPG leak.

From a point at sea, to the circles of your mind, this is Austin
Shackles:


You'll need some soapy stuff (gas fitters suppliers will have it in a bottle
for leak-testing, so will welders suppliers, and I think you can get aerosol
foam ones) and put it around any joints in the high-pressure side
(everything up to the vapouriser).


Water and washing-up liquid in a spray bottle.

I know that some people will throw their hands up in horror at this
(LPGA and Corgi members, mostly) because of the corrosion issue, but
the received wisdom of uk.d-i-y is that this only applies to
washing-up liquid that has salt in it (eg, Fairy bad; Ecover good).

If you rinse it off afterwards I can't see that it is a real issue
anyway. I think it's just another way of trade associations marking
out a spuriously exclusive territory.
