Hello all,
I'm have been slowly in the process of refurbing my LP tank. It started with a leaky regulator so I decided to pull the tank and repaint. While I was at it I thought to replace the tank valve and found a source on the inner webs. The site is www.ODMRV.com and is an Airstream parts and supply place. They had the same exact valve for our GMC on their site for $68 and was the only place I could find one. Well, instead of telling me that part was discontinued they sent me another valve what they felt was an equivalent. The problem is the valve they sent me didn't have the pressure relieve valve on it. See pictures below. I'm not going to use the valve they sent me and I am returning it. I don't think it is leaking so I am not concerned about it. Top bad this valve is no longer available because I'm sure some day it will start to leak.. If it does I suppose one could install another shut-off valve on top of this one.
