yea you are correct with the oil in the gas lol what i meant is are you adding oil to the gas as you fill... i personally, and it works for my m4, use 2 drops of grenade oil for each fill and one drop on the fill nozzle to prevent leaking.. for the most part propane adaptors have some sort of resevoir where you can deposit oil into and it mixes with the gas as it fills ... gbb silicone oil is to thin for gbbrs as I have found and disapears quickly so you either have to manually add it (IE with a regular propane tank such as one of the coleman tanks and an adaptor 5 - 6 drops should do it per fill) but for me through trial and error I use Grenade oil for the tornados and i find it works wonders for the nozzle and stops it from freezing up, because it stays in place longer.. i dont recommend this if you are not comfortable trying it but its just what I do... and the research thing almost all of this info is found in the WETTI technical thread i know it because I had similar issues I had ice forming on my air nozzle as well... and it would vent gas and the ROF would fluctuate. This would happen in +20 weather as well
