Hazard

Fuel can leak from the thread connection between the cylinder and valve, posing a fire hazard if exposed to an ignition source.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using the propane cylinders and call Manchester or go to the firm's website for instructions on having their gas cylinder inspected by a qualified propane equipment dealer and repaired if needed. A list of propane equipment distributors, RV distributors and retail distributors are listed on the firm's website at www.mantank.com on the "Distributors" page.
