Burner assembly needs to be cleaned.  Fridge will have to be removed to
accomplish.  When reassembling burner box, make sure gasket seal is good.
Check gas jet to make sure it is claen and not blocked.  Pay careful
attenetion to all detail.  If ther is any leak in system, flame will blow out
when driving.   
Hope this helps,
Dennis
