Not a Home Improvement Question?

Question

The hose connecting the regulator and propane tank has spung a small leak after the BBQ overheated because of a major flare up. Is there something that can repair the hose safely (a special glue, tape or kit) or does it have to be replaced?
How difficult or simple is it to replace the hose?

Hi Joe
It is most definitely not safe to try to repair the hose. Replacing the hose is pretty easy. They are available anywhere grill parts are sold (Lowes, Home Depot etc).
