Hi guys,
As my trip approaches I start to remember all the things I'm meant to have done but have forgotten!
One such thing is to work out how to connect a gas BBQ to the underslung has tank on my westy.
It has what seem to be like an additional outlet near the isolation valve but can anyone tell me a bit more about what I should look for and need?
Cheers guys

I think its one of those.. at least I hope it is.. I bought one for the same reason. Haven't tried it yet..
If its not I'm sure someone will put me in my place.. again.. I'm usually wrong..

Thanks bud, although my tank doesn't have an outlet for that
Does yours look like this? -

Your regulator setup looks different to the one on our van - perhaps the regulator has been replaced in the past and the BBQ point was removed when that was done.
The setup on our van looks more like this:
The BBQ point is under the plastic cap at the far left.

That's very interesting, thank you! They look very similar but I agree I'm missing the BBQ point - sad times!
Well I don't think I will have time to have a BBQ point fitted so looks like charcoal for us...
Out of interest has anyone installed a BBQ point or new regulator?
Cheers

Günzl in Germany sell new 50mbar regulator sets including the BBQ point, see here:

I wouldn't imagine that it would be too much for a gasure fitter to swap them over.
I believe the regulator does need to be 50mbar for the original Westy fridge to work properly.
