Refilling gas bottles in France (1 Viewer)

[Mike800966]

Does anyone know of any change to the French pump connector that I describe as a brass saucer? The pump locks on to it by three spigots that come out as you lock into it. Thats the one I am used to but a friend is having great difficulty and thinks the French may have changed to a different adapter? He says it might be like a smaller version of the spanish "roll-on deodorant" head!
Any suggestions please?

Many of the french & german fuel stations have a set of adapters & will lend you the correct one.

Not noticed any different ones yet.

Fill up on the A 75 a week ago using the adapter you described and no problem

Your friend needs a euroconnector by the sounds of it, mainly found in Spain.

I have a euroconnector which came with the other two as part of my alugas setup. I have so far never found a pump that needed the euroconnector, but it has only been the 'standard' for 14 years so it may take a few more decades to be adopted widely.

Very many thanks everyone. We were in the Benelux countries just recently and for the first time i needed that screw on adapter, luckily I had one in the set

But all this was a seperate query from a friend in a panic down in the sth of France
Thanks again
