Stuart, if you want to keep it stock, I have a NOS valve for sale -- you can see it on my website. Otherwise, go to your friendly LP place and get (or have them install) a 1 3/4" Acme fill valve, just like every other RV on the road, and a manual bleed valve, ditto. Should be under $50 for both. While you're messing about, if you still have the square model 260 regulator, it's very likely getting ready to start leaking -- they don't make it any more; the replacement is the Marshall Brass model 290 (about $25) which unfortunately is a couple inches longer; but there's room to bend the tubing going into the van to accommodate the new regulator. david David Beierl - Providence, RI http://pws.prserv.net/synergy/Vanagon/ '84 Westy "Dutiful Passage" '85 GL "Poor Relation"
