Your best bet is to remove it yourself.  It's not hard, but it is a bit
heavy, so be careful.  You need a 13mm socket and a long extension and a
couple of open end wrenches to disconnect the gas lines. Remove the two
bolts on the street side completely, then loosen the two inside bolts about
a half inch and you can tip and slide the tank down and out. The mounting
bracket is slotted. Best to run the tank empty first, of course.

If the tank itself is in good condition (just light surface rust, and check
under any welded on labels) sand and paint it with white or gray DeRusto
type paint and take it in to have all the valves with new RV tank valves.
The auto-stop fill valve on these is terrible, and prone to corrosion which
can cause it to stick open when the fill hose is removed (happened to me).
Not a good thing and causes great chaos, and you'll never be able to go back
to that filling station. Shutoff, fill and 80% valve should cost around $100
plus installation.   Well worth doing, and if you still have the rectangular
regulator replace it too.

However, you folks on the east coast where road salt is used may have
serious rust.

Done this twice now on two different vans.

Where do we take the Westfalia to have the tanke inspected and serviced?  Do
I need to find a RV dealer or is there such a thing as a propane service
store?  I live in southern VT.
