2011 sabre bhok-6 check this fitting .

Just packing up tonight for the long holiday weekend and as I am installing my
"steady fast" setup that I made in about 2 hours I smell propane !
So I stop to see what it is and on the passenger side of the 5er i can hear it coming from the propane storage tank area .
I went and got some soapy water in a spray bottle and started spraying everything till I got bubbles !
It was the rubber hose connection to the hard line that runs across the front of the 5er to the other tank .
I went to go get the appropriate tools .

Wasnt even Tight !

There was thread sealant on it but was maybe one full turn from being tight .

Worst part apart about it I lost one and a half tanks of propane.

Left an email with the dealer I am sure they will take care of the propane .

good thing I found this and not this weekend while we are dry camping .

My unit is a sabre 2011 32 bhok-6

I am posting pictures just incase any bhok owners want check theres. just in case .
