I just  have the kitchen and fridge out of the van as I am fighting rust
behind  it..... so are there procedures I should do while the fridge is
anyway out?  I bought some fridge update valve from gowesty ages ago that i
guess i will  install. should one clean any combustion chambers or what-not?
there is a  really funny fan on the back of the fridge, should one install
something  more modern there? Anything else?
I am aware it would be best to just junk  the fridge and put in a vitrifrigo
but I don't have that cash at the  moment.

Please note  that I will be away from my business travelling in Mexico from
November 24, 2008  until April 30, 2009.  Parts orders will be processed
although not as  quickly as usual.  I will always be available for contact by
E-mail.  If you phone your call will be addressed by Greg T. Brown here and he will
either call you back or advise you to contact me directly by E-mail.  Details
of this adventure are at _Buses in Bacalar_
