frig freezing most stuff
Thanks Ralph, Greg & Ernie and group

Still unable to find anything on, hanging or attached to the fins....

there is only 1 shutoff outside (back of frig) and when I turn that
off we have no propane to stove or furnace....

have had to mess with the off/gas/elect knob lately
to get it to go to gas when we are not on electric.

Have had the freezing problem on and off for quite awhile,
more on electric than lp I think. tho it has now gone extreme.

Defrosting today tho I can see the fins clearly (more like icicles
hanging from the bottom of the fins)

There seems to be good resistance when I put paper in the door and try
to pull it out.

Good site Greg, still checking it out.

thanks
