I have a propane AC.  This gas valve is leaking.  Would anyone have one that does not?  I have asked by propane dealer but they are not helpful .  As you can see I replaced the knob, but now I guess the seals are out.  Any other suggestions?  Thanks

Valve will have to be replaced. Valves don't cost alot really. You will have to empty the tank prior to replacement. My suggestion is to replace both valves and anything else that might be old or questionable for safety and reliability purposes.
Can't fix stupid

Yup, best to just change out the entire valve(s) so you know it is good. Look around till you find a good propane shop and it took me calling or stopping by a number to find one. A decent shop can also replace the sight glass/seals as good time to address that also. Nothing like "soaping" connections to chase leaks on old valves that always seem to leak again later, and you have lost all fuel just when you want to fire her up.
