Subject:      Dometic combustion chamber cleaning
Comments: To: Vanagon@vanagon.com
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

With all this talk about refrigerators lately it gave me the incentive to
remove mine for cleaning and fan replacement.  The fridge came out in less
then an hour, a very easy process thanks to information provided by this
list.  I'll soon find out how easy or difficult it is to reinstall the
fridge.


My question is how do I clean the combustion chamber?  I have not yet
opened the combustion chamber, it looks like six screws hold it together.
Is opening it as simple as removing these six screws?  Can I reuse the red
rubber gasket?  From the outside this gasket looks very good.  Once open do
I just blow out the chamber with shop air, or is it more complicated?  Are
there any symptoms I should look for in the combustion chamber once I have
it open?


Thanks in advance for any input.
