You are probably right about the burners being to weak for the oven. The burners on every vanagon westy I have seen are the same 5000btu. The colemans and most newer stoves are 6500btu. I didn¹t time the event but I put a coffe pot on my coleman and a coffee pot on my westy stove at the same time. The coleman had the water boiling way faster than the westy stove. Jimt
