RE: Videos of burning vans Did anyone else viewing the video of the burning Westy speculate on what was causing the spurts of fire from the left side of the van? I'm going to guess that what you are seeing is the pressure relief valve on the propane tank, as the tank heated up, venting propane into the fire. This may answer the question that comes up from time to time about fire hazard from the propane tank in the event of an accident.
