The handle is not the issue. It's where they put the lifting hook.

I just purchased Unleaded 91 for $1.80/l from a servo just 3km from home while every other servo in the Newcastle area was charging between $2.08 and $2.16. :D Prem Diesel was $2.00/l. Note, I didn't show the .99 cents.

Gas is LPG not bottled so you just fill up at the service station when filling up with diesel makes life 10x easier..

Is this legal? This is in the write up about a bus for sale???? :shock:

It is illegal to use Auto-gas for cooking appliances or 3 way fridges because the fumes after burning are released inside the living area as well as the gas to liquid change temp is around 0.5*C, so if the temp dropped below that point the gas in the pipes after the regulator will condense back into a liquid .... until it reaches the point where it enters the flame part ..... then it expands back into a gas, 270 times more by volume between the liquid LPG and gaseous state .... that produces a flame 270 times bigger ...... the issues are obvious.
Clearly, the gas system was not certified by a gas licencing person because it is both illegal and dangerous .....
