Subject:Dometic blues - from bad to worse on LP

Went through pulling my RM182B out, cleaning, and inspecting as per Frank
Condelli's marvelous instructions (http://www.frankcondelli.com/fridge.htm),
but it has gone from weak flame to no-flame.

I can hear gas flowing (with a tube held to the open drain). I can see a
spark most clicks. I've tried the AC pre-cool trick, which worked wonders
before I laid hands on it. I got one, and only one "pop".

I'm wondering if I bumped or miss-aligned the piezo sparker in the
combustion chamber. Does anyone have a picture or experience aligning it
with the burner tube? I did find one picture
(http://www.flickr.com/photos/werksforwagens/368330574/in/set-72157594499353583/),
but most mentioned in the archives have drifted off into neverland.

Thanks,
