<VV> other maintainence???/top heater hose

[Harry Yarnell]

Not sure I saw the critical closure in your post. The hole in the turkey 
roaster MUST be closed. I remove the flange, use it as a template, drink a 
can of beer, cut up the can to provide a nice thin sheet of aluminum to 
cover the hole.
