Can anybody point me in a good direction for converting a tappan range
(model unknown, nameplate is ruined) to propane?

All the sites google comes up with are garbage.

My regulator is rated NG or propane, it says so. I can replace the
orifices in the top burners easily. They're some brass piece that threads
on. I've not peeked in the oven section yet.



Generally, you need to remove the orfice fittings from ALL the burners, weld
the orfices shut and re-drill them smaller. Talk to your friendly local
propane dealer... They deal with this little "problem" all the time.

The catch is I live in Chicago, I don't see propane used for anything but
melting tar and heating contruction sites. My issue is the fixed fees for
natural gas connection exceed my actual gas usage by about a factor of 5.
It's scam I'm not interested in participating in any longer.
