Replacing propane line In Seneca

[mikew968]

I found that the rubber propane line that goes from the tank to the 3 way aluminum splitter has a hole in it. I detached it from the tank but absolutely can’t get it off the aluminum splitter. Any suggestions?

For some reason I can’t post pics from my IPhone 8

Might need some heat to get it off but not thinking a torch on propane lines sounds real good.

Here is another thread on the subject.... I hope you don't have the red-loctite on yours.

I had my mechanic take a look at it. When it was put together they used some kind of red pipe thread sealer and really tightened on. He used a kind of channel locks that grip tighter the harder you twist and was able to get it right off. I finally found a shop to make the new line and got it finished last night. One thing I did was to protect the hose where it will rub on the frame as it crosses over.
