I bought this stove last week and intend to put it in the kitchen soon if it works. It will replace one that is just like it except from the 30s (we were told). This one was made in 1986 and parts are still available for it, plus it will be easier to clean. The stove was sitting in an old diner that had been made into a bar and has not been used in a few years, the propane tanks had been removed previously so I could not test it there. It is missing the knobs but the valves are turn well and I have cleaned it up a bit. I would like to test it before moving the current stove out and this one in as this stove weighs 850# and I assume the old one is similarly heavy. I am wondering if I can use the little propane bottle I use on my propane torch or if I need a bigger tank, and what kind of regulator I will need. As I understand it I will also need a hose to go from the regulator to the flare fitting on the back of the stove. If anyone can advise me how to proceed I will be very grateful as I don't know much about gas other than how to adjust the air and the pilots on the stove.
