Subject:      Please, Please, suspected refrigerator propane leak, help please.
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello, I am seeking advice regarding my 91 syncro propane leak. I have had a very very small propane leak for the last year, now a bit larger. The leak is only detectable in the vent area, behind the stove - even that is hardly noticeable. I did the soapy water test on every fitting I could reach/find, no leak was detected. I then thought the leak might be from the stove, I took it apart, still not a leak could be found. Now I am only down to the refrigerator and or fittings that I don't know about.

Question, has anyone ever had a leak in the refrigerator itself? If so was it a bear to fix/find.

Any advise would be welcomed and appreciated. I checked the archives and soap bubble tested the fittings under the van.

Thanks in advance,warmly Sanford

I have put

hent of 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 test, still nothing. I did the same tests on the refrigerator and stove propane connection- again nothing.
