Subject:      Suspected refrigerator, internal propane leak??
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello, I am seeking advice regarding my 91 syncro refrigerator propane leak. I had the refrigerator out about 2 years ago, before that point not a hent of propane had ever been detected. Lately I have intermittently smelled a very light hint of propane. The smell appears to come exclusively from the small vent under the stove, not a trace of propane from the rear vent area – thus the leak appeared to be emitted from the stove. Not so, about 3 weeks ago I got into the stove area and preformed the soap bubble test on all fittings – nothing, even did the not smart lighter test, still nothing. I did the same tests on the refrigerator and stove propane connection- again nothing. One last thing, I have a propex heater, I checked the fittings and not one leak detected. Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated. I would hate to pull the refrigerator out just to find it wasn’t the leak culprit.

Also has anyone had an experience with a www.gasrefrigeration.net from Cranes RV in VALLEJO CA?

Thank you, Baffled before winter camping, Sanford
