My propane refrigerator was not cooling so I set about attempting to remedy the situation.Following instructions provided by some friends I removed the flue from my refrigerator and brushed it out. After locating the tiny hook for the baffle in the heat exchanger, I removed it and washed it off. The large brush, which looks like a baby bottle brush with a three foot handle was run up and down the tube in the heat exchanger, sloughing large amounts of carbon. It soon emitted, smoke. Damn, I guess I should have turned off the flame first. Extracting the brush, it was now but a wire.
The refrigerator started cooling. Hopefully I can buy a brush in town.
