You mean when parked?
There should be NO loss of gas when parked with the engine off over any amount of time.
If your gas level is dropping you have a leak, fix it immediately.

You certainly need someone the knows LPG tanks & systems, if you dont know anything about it.
Please dont go messing about with it.
If you suspect there is a leak,
get the system emptied or sealed before there is a naked flame or spark around the vehicle.
If you are smelling it, it can be pooled down low, & very easy to ignite.
