My Wildax has a 30lt underslung tank, according to what I have read on other vans sold in the UK as 20lts seems to be the norm.

13KG = 26 litres, I think from memory? Double it.

There are very few places near us to fill these tanks. Only one in county Wexford. Over an hours drive to another place. I carry two 11 kg cylinders and can get new ones two minutes from me. Can’t see me ever changing. I have a mate who is getting rid of his underbelly tank and changing to standard cylinders, due to effort of finding somewhere to fill them

I’ll find out. It’s off an RV though so I suspect it’s large enough

Max, it seems he is having an issue finding a place to fit the cylinders that will satisfy the gas man. He has a place for one but wants two. If he gets it sorted out, I’ll be back to you
