Customer: It has been several months since we have tried turning our frig over to gas in our RMD 8551. We have put in a full gas bottle, turned on the stove to draw the gas thru and then made many attempts to start the gas with no success
JA: Has the vehicle turned into a gas hog? And how does it start -- same as usual?
Customer: Dont understand
JA: What is the model/year of your RV?
Customer: 2013
JA: Are you fixing your RV yourself? What have you tried so far?
Customer: Trying to do it ourselves. We thought there may be a n air bubble so we turned on the stove whilst pressing the gas button
JA: Anything else you want the mechanic to know before I connect you?
Customer: No

My name is ***** ***** I am a professional here at Just Answer. I noticed that your question had not received a response and thought I would see if you still need help with this.I apologize for the delay and I hope I can still assist you with this here.My info is somewhat limited on your model here but I had seen no one else has responded and would like to see if I can help here.If at any time you feel that I cannot help with this please let me know.

There can be an issue with debris or a bug in the fuel feed line or fuel control valve for the fridge.I have seen this occur in the past before and causes this issue here with the lines needing cleaned out.I would have this checked into to see if this is the cause needing corrected.

If more help is needed, use the reply tab to continue our conversation. If no further assistance is needed, kindly rate my service, your 5-star rating is appreciated ( should be a link to click on here or above).You can rate at any time and we can continue to work on your question as this will not close out your question.Keep in mind in some cases it can be difficult to fully diagnose or help repair your vehicle without seeing it and I work on delivering the best possible answer from what I see to work with.

Thanks Pete
