I can tell you from personal experience on our 1982, if the flue vent isn't
perfect, it will blow out. The inner flat gizmo in ours was slightly askew
when we bought the van and speeds over 5 mph would blow out the fridge.
Re-aligned the flat-thing-in-the-middle-of-the-flue thingy, and I can do
145 mph and the fridge is still going (alright, divide that by two).

does anyone out there know why my pilot light blows out? obviously it is
when the wind hits the flue vent just right, but why?  is it supposed to,
or
is there a way to keep the pilot light lit while driving?
thanks
