Hi,
My fridge pilot is going out when driving.  Otherwise the  fridge runs
very well on propane.  Any idea  why?

Gilles, there is an air  leak somewhere in the intake - combustion chamber -
exhaust system.   Leaking combustion chamber gasket, leaking side vent to body
gasket, broken  intake ~ exhaust tube, combustion chamber drain vent screw
cap not in  place.

Cheers,
