I've just completed a very rewarding shade-tree enhancement to the coach that I've been meaning to do for a long time. I've wanted to tap the propane
tank with a connector so I might use our barbecue grille or our little red campfire without carrying additional propane. I know others have done
this, but the experience of doing it is vastly different than reading about it.
I called my local propane place but they said the don't do that kind of thing, then looking to YouTube I saw that it's an easy do-it-yourself thing
with the Camco 59113 adapter. As long as I was at it I thought to buy a new regulator from Jim K. Super easy to do with a few open end wrenches 1",
1-1/16" and I think a 3/4" or 7/8", depending on what your PO may have done.
I was going to take pictures this morning, but found someone who did a better job of documenting it than I would

After installation I applied the bubble soap and did find a very small leak. Wrenched that connection a little and no more leaking.
A feel-good thing to do on a sunny weekend!
