Does it need replacing or just due for its pressure test. As the pressure test and cleaning the vavles up is less than $200 i think.

whats standard size? if its the same as GU then $1200 is a bit steep for an extra 25lt.

Here on the Central Coast i got my old Mav's LPG tank pressure tested for $45 at Haynes Gas at Erina

only thing was i had to run the tank dry and remove it myself, not that hard a job.

they did the pressure test and new valves for $45, a bargan for the next 10 years, well so i thought till i rolled her :)
