Subject:Westy fridge clinic tomorrow, SoCal
From:Mark Drillock
Date:Fri, 27 Aug 2004 18:30:46 -0700

Tomorrow I will be taking out one or more of my Westy fridges for a
thorough servicing. I invite other Socal Westy owners with fridges that
work poorly or that may need burner chamber cleaning to come over and do
theirs too.  It is not as hard as people fear and can turn what some use
as a storage cabinet back into a real fridge.I have done this to many
Westys with fridges that don't work well. Usually a cleaning takes care
of the problems or at least greatly improves the propane operation. We
will also check that the propane pressure regulators are set to the
proper pressure. This is one cause for Westy fridges that won't cool
well on propane. We will also test the temp switch that runs the fridge
fan. The fan must cycle on and off or cooling will be meager on warm days.

Anyone interested, we start at 10 am. Let me know by p-mail and I will
give directions.
