Mend Fridge Cold Gas

How long is normal for a 3 way fridge to get cold when using gas?

How long is normal for a 3 way fridge to get cold when using the gas setting in my camper? I know that the vehicle has to be level, but does it matter if its not completely leval all the time?
Thanks-Ben.

Hi Cledlyn. Yes thanks for the info.
I think the gas is getting through fine cause i can see the flame, but i had it on for 2 hours, and it didn't seem to get any colder?
Thanks.

-It is not that critical to be level.
-The gas setting should not be less efficient than 12 or 240v.
-All three settings are just different ways of applying heat, thus causing pressure, to make the coolant do it's job.
-The problem with the gas setting is the flame has to send its heat up a tube which usually has a spiral deflector up the middle. This means that rust particles, dust and debris cannot fallout of the bottom of the tube.
To get at the tube you could try to remove the outside grills else you will have to remove the whole unit to get at the back of it. Bear in mind the gas jet may be partially blocked as well.
