I do have a small compressor that is for inflating tires and toys.  But
compressed air is not hard to come by otherwise.  I will try it.  But I
really do think my refrigerator needs the renovation.  Checking with RV
shops.  Two have essentially said that the job is not worth doing, and that
I should explore a replacement.  Of course, there is no replacement from
Dometic, though other manufacturers offer compressor refrigerators.  Not
what I want at all.  I will find a way to get this done.  I have the
instructions, I just don't want to tackle this "easy" job myself.  I've
been down that road with other "easy" jobs, and I know my limitations.
Whereas one of you who is skilled might do a job in a half a day, I end up
doing, and redoing, and redoing, spending 2-3 days and more money than it
would have cost to hire it done.
