I had a similar problem with an RV stove top I use int he milk room. I replaced the Oring with several different sizes, tried pipe dope and gas approved tef tape, etc. Kept getting a leak and fire at fitting on several different tanks. Finally bit the bullet and bought a new regulator set up...SAME THING!!! Even after meticulously cleaning the OPD valve I got a leak and fire. ( The tanks sits beside the stove, no other way to position it.) Finally I got a 12" Crescent wrench and really tightened that sucker down. No leak now. I think it's the OPD fittings because the one tank that didn't leak is an old 30lbs non-OPD tank that I use on my big torch. But that one isn't the one I wanted to use.
I also had a propane smell after installing a stove. Tried the high dollar "soap bubbles" from the plumbing store and couldn't find a leak. Finally took and old gas workers advice and got a wet rag and a lighter. I found the leak that way. Not the way I prefer to do things, but sometimes you have to resort to crude methods to fix stuff.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
