Help Identify Propane Adapter

[federex9]

Hi guys,

Was watching this YT video about the MT2500 and saw a cool way to diagnose an intake vacuum leak using propane (see video):

What is that hose adapter on the propane tank? It's hard to see due to the quality of the video.

Or better yet, is there a HOSE adapter you can connect to the Coleman small propane tanks and that has a way to dial
the amount of gas coming out?

Thanks.

I think you could do the same thing with a propane torch with the burner head removed and a pc of rubber hose. I think all they're doing is finding leaks with raw propane?

You can get a 1-lb propane "regulator" to a number of fittings that has a dial.

I've always just used a torch. Unlit, obviously....

It's also an excellent way to find bad insulation on HV wires!
