For those of you who have an EKO 40, could you let me know whether or not the two metal secondary ports are tack welded to the front frame. Mine are not. Seems I read quite a while back that they were indeed supposed to be tack welded. The reason I am asking is that once last year and now once this year a backfire inside the unit has caused a metal port to be driven forward with a lot of force. Enough force to make a big dent in the front panel. I just tap them back in, but that is not a fix. Has anybody else had yhis happen?
