Last weekend we purchased an AC 190XT and an AC D17 on auction, and they are both factory propane. We thought we would be able to fill them from our normal propane tank by installing a wet line. However, there seems to be some disagreement amongst the local farm service personnel. Some say this will work but it will be slow (which is fine with me), yet others say it will not work at all because the tank on the tractor would have to sit lower than the propane tank we are filling from (and it won't). My opinion is that filling the tractors has more to do with pressure than gravity, so it should work even if the tractor sits higher than the tank (as long as the tank isn't low on propane). Anyone have any experience with this? We really need to get this figured out, and a $2000 pump is not in the budget!!! Thanks in advance for any advice! Andrea
