I've got an old two burner stove that will no longer turn all the way off. You have to pull the tank out of the stove to kill the last little bit of invisible flame and then loosen the cap to release the pumped up pressure.

Apparently the needle valve and/or the seat is bad, and the stores don't carry that as a replacement part.

Any ideas ???
