Subject:      propane on/off valve source
Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed

Just combed through the archive a bit and couldn't find any info on replacing the on/off (main) valve. Lots of info on regulator and overfill valve. Maybe somebody has the answer floating around in their head? I still get propane smell inside vehicle, even with t he main valve off. I think I may also have a propane leak somewhere inside the fridgerator. Not the lines, I checked those and they are fine AFAIK with bubbly solution. Fridge is still not working on propane, just get pilot light, vents heating, but no coolin in reefer. So since I got a fresh regulator, I also want to empty the tank (easy, on a breazy cliff...) and swap the main valve. Don't know who has it, prop fill station who sold me the regulator don't know. Or maybe I should stop pinching and order a whole new tank incl valve? I have had this Westy for about 1 year and only driven it in the past month, I doubt the propane system was used much in it's lifetime...

So, actually I only need a source for that main valve?

Cheerio
