When coolant flow is disrupted/obstructed the cooling unit perk tube (boiler) can be overheated ending with metal fatigue/failure......LEAK




Only takes 20 minutes of off level operation to cause problems.


Off level......
Enough if a tilt to be noticeable

This is what I read also. If you can notice it (off level) so can the fridge.
