If my tank gets rusty/scuzzy, i swap it. You don't get much propane
on the swap, but it is cheaper than buying a new tank/valve.
Thereafter, it can be refilled for a full charge. All my old tanks

buy the new safety valve.

You can get bottles filled but around here most people just swap theirs for a
full one for about $18 or so. I guess this is a reason why charcoal is better
but we use propane because it's easier.

Could be hoses, could be the caliper.
If you were able to troubleshoot, when the caliper is locked up then you
open the bleeder valve on the caliper, and if fluid comes out and the
caliper un-locks, that's a pretty good indication that the hose is the
problem.

Sounds like hoses, especially if after sitting 1/2 hour the brakes
are free again. I put new hoses on one 240D, and after a year, the
LF was swollen shut. ATE hoses... I have not attacked the problem
yet. Am just letting the car sit for now.
As Mr DIllon said, open the bleeder and push
