Tracy,

Both David Robertson and David Beierl have already
given good advice on starting with the simpler stove
lighting and troubleshooting the propane system in
general. Once you've successfully accomplished these
though, it's on to the fridge.

You don't say which of your vans you're having the
trouble with, so I'll assume the Vanagon.

Start by running the fridge several hours, even
overnight, on 120VAC shore power, to pre-chill the
system and get the circulation going. Then follow the
PDF Owner's Manual which I have pmailed you separately
for the proper lighting procedure.

If the system has been sitting unused for very long,
you may need to clean the external intake/exhaust vent
tubes with a shop-vac and drain the little screw-cap
located waaay down near the floor underneath the front
of the fridge cabinet.

Good luck!
