[C320-list] Propane tank

[John Meyers]

As far as needing to be recertified, the place where you have it filled
will know by the dates stamped on the tank.

BTW, Last week when I went to turn on the gas I discovered it was still on
from last year, my bad, but seemed we still had gas. But it it s newer tank
which we bought a couple years ago
