Thanks, this is very helpful. Mine does not have the red insert that is shown on yours.
It is possible the tank was overfilled. But would it empty completely if that was the case? Or would it just empty just enough to bring it to "normal"?

DO NOT fill the tank Completely, until you find the leak. Just pump a gallon or 2. Then use soapy water around ALL the fittings on the tank. The tank should have more than enough clearance to cawl under it to soak the bottom fittings. That bottom fitting is usually the tank valve relief. It SHOULD reset after it trips, but it may now be faulty. I would replace it if that is where the soapy water bubbles. If you only put a gallon or so in the tank, then bleeding it off by emptying the tank will not take long. The tank has to be empty of liquid and vapor to replace that valve. I would highly advise you to have a LP company replace the valve after you verify the problem. Doug

But realistically you should be able to fill the tank, turn it on it's side, lean over and put your nose against the hole and take a sniff. If it's leaking you will know.
Realistically, it's a bit of a project to turn the tank on it's side - it's installed pretty sturdily under the Class A motorhome...
