RVs with propane generators, have frame mounted tanks
I have never seen an RV with portable cylinders and a propane powered built in Onan generator
We had a DP with a propane Onan generator, as dry campers, propane is costly and a hassle
The OP stated his generator is used infrequently, he believes the conversion to be worth while, I think it would cost less and be more efficient, to just exercise his Onan once a month and keep stabilizer in his fuel
He thinks he did not get any helpful info
He did not get change over conversion info, because nobody here has done what he wants to do
He got lots of helpful info, but not the info he wanted
Sometimes learning that what you want to do, is not very feasible, is helpful info
Like our parents telling us not to do things we wanted to do when we were children
This doesn't fall in the same category, as riding the bicycle down the barn roof into the snow drift
But the concept is the same,
Don't get offended because you don't get the consensus and info you want
Maybe what you want isn't the best way
If the OP pursues this and finds the way
I hope he comes back with pictures and detailed info on the how-to
