Hey All, Well, my fridge has a few hundred miles under its belt running on propane while moving at all speeds, then one day, it starts to blow out. I remembered I pulled the fridge a couple weeks ago, so I figured I screwed something up putting it back in, and thought I'd pull it again to double check. Now, the first thing I do when pulling the fridge (and I am a pro now - max 10 mins to pull it) is to disconnect the flue from the outside (you'll only forget this once). The flue is, IMHO, a PITA to put on correctly, and as I was staring at it pondering its removal, I realized that I had not put the center "baffle" (separator, whatever) on flush with the exhaust pipe - it was just at a small angle, so the pipe was not "sticking thought" it (or, more properly, sitting flush).l I fixed it and low and behold, the fridge no longer blows out. Picky little thing... ...JMM
