No Pauly, it's called a "saddle tank" because of the

After the hike over the bridge from the car park, crow barring the shed door open

Because of the difficulty obtaining Butane in sufficient quantity, Pauly volunteers to fill the tank with methane.

Pauly totally agrees that lighting the gas via an opening smokebox door is

Sorry Pauly, it says in the coal firing instructions "the blower can't be used until sufficient pressure is raised" - you're gonna have to keep sucking mate!
