Matt, Where did you have that done? We are close & I may need it.

Steve, I contacted a nearby bulk propane supplier. Bad news right up front, the company changed names and won't deal with me anymore because I am not a fixed tank customer. I had to remove the tank and bring it to them for them to do the valve swap. I don't know where to send you now.
Push comes to shove, you can try Cinnabar in Sandusky MI. They are up in the thumb and they work on motor homes.

Is the valve handle actually turning on its own, or is the fully-closed position changing over time?

On my motorhome ( perm. tank), I discoveed that my shut off valve opens back up partially after having been closed earlier. Is this an easy - simple relacement? Expensive? Doug

Would this be the same LP tank that you couldn't get filled, too rusted out, scenario form a couple months ago?
