You need a wet line on a home propane storage tank to refill a tractor with liquid. I had a JD 4020 and a 100 gallon pull along behind the tractor to the field "Nurse" tank....and nursing it was. When cold vapor pressure is like zero so you have problems getting fuel to the engine and when hot, it is all vapor....vapor is not 91k BTU/gallon. Finiky starting if stopped once started for the day. I figure it was because of what I said about BTUs required to run the engine and BTUs available with boiled fluid....aka vapors in summer. If you didn't play with it and hit the sweet spot (for that split second subject to constantly changing) forget starting it. Operator's station was nice and warm in the winter and burn you to a crisp in the summer. Getting fueled up required the local LP co. to come out and do it.....diesel you just drive your truck or 55 gallon drums in a trailer get your fuel where you choose and be done with it.
That was my first JD and I learned quickly why the little weep holes were on the side of each cylinder in the block casting.
