I wondered if the gas regulater might be worth a look. if the pressure is down that would affect the gas flame?

How is the gas on the cooker, if that seems low as well then either replace the bottle or the regulator, Wouldn't hurt to have a spare regulator and try it, I have always carried a spare one and hose in case of problems, also have two bottles and always keep one full, adds to the noseweight but without it I would probably run out of gas in the middle of nowhere andas we rely on it that would be a disaster for brekky!

Hurray
Ive changed the jet and now it works. a good 4 deg C achieved. now all I have to do is check all the gas joints before putting it back in place. A working fridge and only 2 weeks before its needed!

Happy camping!
