Propane tank removal: 1. Turn off propane. 2. Drop the stone guard 3. Undo the plumbing with SAE (not metric) wrenches. Do this at the tank and it can probably be removed easily. If interference is met, remove the pipes where they attach under the stove (put a pillow inside the pantry after removing the shelves and have a good flashlight aimed overhead). 4. Remove the four 13mm bolts that hold the tank to the frame of the car.
