Subject:      Fridge was Smoking!!!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed

We just got back from a music festival in NorCal where it was HOT! When we got parked i lit the fridge, and after an hour or so i noticed that it wasn't getting cold. So i thought that i'd give it through the night to get cold enough for food. When we woke up early the next morning, my wife saw white smoke coming up and out of the flu. I quickly turned the fridge off to check things out. The flu was hot to the touch and so was the grill at the top back of the fridge between it and the body wall.

We haven't used the fridge since, but i'm assuming that something is definitely broken. Anybody experience white smoke coming from the flu before? Any ideas as to what might be wrong?

Thanks for your help, dusty.
