[Northkeep] acetylene warning.. aka- don't blow up your car...

[Mark Whitney]

The reality of this is any refillable tank of any sort leaks, if it's is a fuel or oxygen source, store it outside or where there is plenty of ventilation. This includes propane, butane, acetylene, naturals gas, naphtha,etc.......just leave it in the outside
