A local engine fellow is considering bringing his 22 1/2HP Bessemer for
his annual trek to Portland this year. He has displayed plenty of
engines in the past, but this would be his first time displaying an oil
field engine.
The engine is nicely restored and was in GEM a few years ago. But he has
a question about the LP tanks. He is using the 100# tank and is
wondering about the show's requirements to hold the tanks in the
vertical position. Are there speciific rules at Portland regarding
strapping the tank to something on the engine to assure it can't be
knocked over? Or is free standing OK?
If strapping is required, is it sufficient to put up a fence post and
strap the tank to it?
Thanks,
