Looking to replace a gas range. Present setup uses LP gas. I know that
most new appliances come with a conversion kit. Question for now is how
tricky is that to do?

Everything I've read suggests it is a straightforward process. Any gotchas
one needs to be aware of?

The biggest and most important I can think of is RTFM! (Read the f'ing
manual)

Conversion from natural gas to lp is common in that industry. But some have
different ways of doing it. Some, you have to replace all the orifices.
Some, you just turn a plate, and you're done. Get the manual, read the
instructions, follow them, and while you're at it, take a bottle of Windex,
and spray on all the connectors just to be safe. I just bought a big Bosch
5 burner cooktop. Changing orifices was a little more involved than the
usual stove, and there was a screw inside the on/off stem that had to be
adjusted, but the instructions were clear, and I was done in less than half
an hour.

Men may not seek directions in a car, but a manly man sure likes the
instruction manuals when it comes to complex machinery.
