Jay, if that fridge of yours keeps blowing out, the
intake/exhaust/combustion chamber system is leaking somewhere. The backfire is due to
flooding of propane in the combustion chamber, which is due to not enough
oxygen in there to light up the propane in the first place. See my _VW
Vanagon Westfalia Dometic Fridge Maintenace_
(http://frankcondelli.com/fridge.htm) webpage for help.
