Have you tried running it on gas since you got home, on level ground?

Well before the " take it out and turning it upside down " replies get here, the fact it is working on another source means you don't have to do that !
It sounds to me like you need the gas side servicing.... Quite often the symptoms you describe are consistent with a dirty flame area, maybe just a couple of specks of rust from the inside of the flu distracting the flame pattern , so making the flame "miss the spot"

If it runs on 230V and 12V you don't need to turning it upside down. It only helps if it doesn't cool anyway.

Look if there ist mud or cobweb near the cone, jet, injector (I don't now the correct word).
Clean the cone (only with blast - not with a wire!)
Best way: replace the blast (the price is only a few pound)

Just a quick thing about fridges. Does anyone just use a beer fridge in their van and is there any problems with this. I know fridge companies say not use plug in a fridge for a few hours until it stops moving
