Nothing formal. Just by stopping discussion on this one, and referring future discussion to the other one. Done!

We have two threads going on the same issue, let's close this one so we can better help you by focusing on the other one.

Is that still relevant if the fridge cools really well on shore power and battery? Only trouble is with the propane.

Dang! It's level right now and has been level whenever we are camping. Maybe not while in winter storage, but the fridge isn't running then. Would that matter?

If the trailer is level, it sounds like there may possibly be a blockage in the tubing. If the tubing on the right is hot, the tubing to the left of it should taper off in temperature and not have an abrupt change in temperature. This might apply: |

There is a strong blue flame following the more thorough cleaning. It's a bigger flame and has a slight "roar" that I can hear through the outside panel cover. This is a noticeable improvement from earlier.

The chimney is hot to the touch. When opening the upper panel, the right side of tubing is hot, the fins and all to the left are room temp--not hot,not cold? Normal?

Is your gas flame blue or yellow? Should be blue. It might help if you post a picture of it here.
