What I'm thinking about doing is setting up a vapor pump to create a pressure differential. I've got a Tecumseh A/C compressor off a ford van that I think will do the job. It's a cast iron reciprocating pump with two cylinders and since it's designed to handle A/C system pressure it should easily handle LP pressure. The important feature is that is has it's own seperate oil resevoir. It will just take a little finagaling to get the fittings worked out. Shouldn't take much running of it after the tanks have equalized to get the tank to top off.
A long time ago, in High School, I worked at the local Co-op and one of my jobs was filling Ammonia tanks. That setup used a vapor pump, although of course it was much much bigger. That's what got me to thinking about using a vapor pump. Filling those 1000 gallon tanks to 85% seemed to take forever though!
We had lots of safety equipment, such as an on/off switch on the pump. Also legs, to run away if something bad happened!
