    iv done loades , leave it with valve oped for a week , snap the valve off after that and fill the tank with water , stand it next to a fire in the garden and let it get hot and steam . change the water for clean leave it a day or so , empty it then you can drill the remains of the valve out and weld a plug over it etc to make it look pretty wehn you do all the other work . be carfuil when you cut it and dopnt use a gas axe use an angle grinder , the liquid gas will have inpregnated the steel , hence all the above steps . good luck
