In my experience, single door Dometics always work better on A/c. And, the whole "off level" is blown way out of proportion for any Dometic made after the early-mid 1980's. If you had a blockage,I doubt it would be intermittent. But you cold remove the hoses and check. I would check the pressure.You can even make a manometer easily and cheaply--

Also, look at the flame, you would have to remove the cover to do this, and compare with pictures/videos on youtube/net. If it appears low, you possibly have junk in the jet,or in the cut off solenoid, or the tube, all easily cleaned.
Other things that greatly affect--- ambient temperatures different?, wind, and sun load on that side of the camper. Smart to catch that you had too much clearance in the back, happens a lot with camper builders. Also, too much clearance on the sides and top. Good luck.
The refrig uses very little fuel, not like a stove/oven or water heater, and pressure or restriction can greatly affect it.
