I was thinking about it, too. The hole is an unnatural shape. Okay.. I will close this hole soon.

> Is your fuse behind the driver's seat good?

yeah.. There is a small fuse box. Should I check this fuse box? Does this fuse box have the refrigerator and the relations?

Upper? Lower? Both sides?

Sure.. Should I blow off Air-Inletpipe with the compressor? The inside of Air-Inlet is a little dirty. But, that doesn't have the trash.

yeah..

That is making it vent in the wall of your van instead of outside.

Maybe.. ;-)

I had the explosion many times. But, chamber never burns continuously. The refrigerator don't have the hole aluminum foil at the time of this operation. I closed the hole at the time of this operation. Then, I got rid of aluminum foil (Upper and Lower). The "exhaust heat" runs to Air Inletpipe. The exhaust pipe doesn't become hot. I did this work outside (inside) Westy. I want to know the originals refrigerator condition. All of work start from the originals.

> Is it rusty behind your fridge?

No! Very beautiful.. Clean!

Thanks for your help.
