    Thanks kees and pugetsoundboater………very good advice!! I can assure you that I won’t be taking any chances on blowing things up. I will be very very sure to clean the tank thoroughly. I have heard of filling a tank full of exhaust fumes prior to using a naked flame is one way of avoiding an explosion.

    Thanks again.

    PS I well remember my Dad telling me that you only need a very small amount of vapour in a tank to have an explosion!
