Guilty.  When I used to take my welding tanks over for refill, I always carried them in my car.  I made sure that the tank caps were secure, but that's the best I could do.

The shop I used to take them was really lax.  We used to kid ourselves that they would be willing to put acetylene in a paper bag.

Hi
I recoverd a car many years ago the owner had a small camping stove in the boot
It must have leaked gas he got in to the vehicle and lit a cigarett.
Talking to the fire man on the scene he reckond the sun roof blowing out saved him.
The blokes hearing never recoverd and it took years for the burns to heal properly and his hair to come back
Just plain unlucky the correct air to fuel ratio and a spark

The vent tube should empty to outside your vehicle. You aren't carrying it in the passenger compartment?
