I did not know this. Thanks for sharing, Greg. I now understand why I
could not keep my fridge cold while parked on a slope one day. I shut
down the gas and started up the generator immediately when we parked
out of level, knowing the gas would not be happy with the out of level
situation. The fridge slowly warmed up during the day and I didn't
understand why, just assumed it was the 100 degree weather outside.
