Checked  archives and found old emails people had sent regarding my
Dometic. Lots of  helpful info. Thanks! I didn't see what I need to
know  though.....

Got the refer on the bench, and am looking into my air  intake cooling
idea and doing some maintenance (burping/mods) while it's  out.

I re-used seal on combustion chamber last time I cleaned it out.  I'm
hesitant to re-use it again.

If I can't find a new seal for  combustion chamber, can high temp RV
sealant (or better??) be applied to  exterior joint of combustion
chamber to ensure a good  seal?

Neil, I use Loctite  Ultra Copper Hi-Temp RTV sealant, works fine.  If needed
I make new  gaskets from a material I get in gasket making material from
either Canadian  Tire or NAPA.
