It isn't a subaru question but can you get Acetyene Bottle Refill / swapped in NSW without an account? As in QLD you need an account and i have heard a rumour you can in NSW. Thanks in advance.

We used to be able to.
Apparently, the bottle companies now barcode all bottles which means they will know if somebody is swapping.

I haven't used acetylene in years, and I'm a boilermaker. Most places use LPG for the fuel gas now....

Yeah i have already set up with LPG but i thought it would be good to have the best of both worlds.

Lpg isn't as good cause its not as hot but LPG is heaps cheaper to run!
