Greetings
My boy borrowed my Tundra and 2009 Hawk. He went to Mammoth skiing. When he got back to the truck and fried some hot dogs, and set down to eat, the propane gas sensor alarm went off. He thought at first it might be the refrigerator. He tried with frozen hands to turn the manual shut off. Don't know if that worked. He turned it clockwise.
Then he said he smelled gas in the propane bottle area. I told him to unscrew and re-screw the gas fitting. He said he could not get it to budge. Frozen on I guess. I told him to turn off the gas for the night. He has cold weather sleeping bags and extra blankets.
My question is have any of you had gas leak problems when in extreme cold conditions? I am not there to help and I am not sure what to look for anyway.
