Very much appreciated. I run through this every month but never knew how to deal with the combustion blower chamber. I'll be sure to take that apart and clean it out.

The last thing that was concerning to me was the pellet metering slide plate. While running it on empty and testing, I noticed it does not fully open left to right. There is about a 1/4" of play. Not sure if this is typical and why sometimes the auger outputs only a small batch of fuel here and there. I dont want to take the auger motor assembly and pin out if I dont have to.

Will report back.
