BBQ Point on an Autotrail (1 Viewer)

[Mike B]

Hi, does anybody know the size of the BBQ point on an Autotrail.

 

[Bill_OR]

Mike - size in what way? I can go and measure mine if you want.

As far as I am aware external BBQ points are standard and a bullfinch connector is usually supplied.

I don't have the connector Carol, can you tell me what size it is?

"oh no there not" in my best panto voice.
More recent Autotrails have the Bullfinch connector, that's common and standard on a lot of newer vans.
Older AT's use a clip in connector and there are 2 sizes. My 2005 van had that type but sorry can't remember the size.
So all depends on your van and what socket is fitted.

This is the type I have currently and had on my previous van which was an Autotrail.

Sorry Mike it appears that you weren't enquiring about the usual regulator but something else!!

Mike - my connector (not that I have ever used it) is exactly like the one pictured above

Mine's an older Autotrail 2002, the BBQ point is recessed, so awkward to measure.

The fittings you posted images of look like for compressed air not LPG
2002 is awkward, was it fitted in 2002 or 2004 onwards as gas pressures changed and so did the connector

A pre 2004 connector

GAS OUTLET NOZZLE

Used to connect the external gas BBQ point to gas hose
This item is suitable for caravans PRE 2004. If your housing lid is a "slide up" lid, this nozzle is suitable.
If your housing lid is a "pull open" lid, you need a post-2004 nozzle.

Totally correct, I assumed they were similar fittings, I guess that was wrong then.

None of those, they are airline connectors.

Haven't had a good gassing thread for a long time....

If you have a look at my old thread you can see if the photo looks the same.
