I am amazed to hear that some fridges out there can cool to 40 below ambient. My 84 dometic consistently cools 20-25 below ambient on max. Ventililation is unobstructed, I recently cleaned the gas jet which made it easier to light but did not improve performance. Maybe earlier fridges do not work as well? Maybe my thermostat is broken (anyone know how it works and how to test it?). I am planning to install a solar fan but I doubt it will improve performance that much. Suggestions? -- David Shepherdson
