Okay, now this stove doesn't owe me anything as it's been rock solid and heated our house fine since about 2012. The only thing I've had to replace on it was the igniter this year. The problem is that it's been dying out on me lately. I have the blower speed set at 9 and the pellet feed speed set at 3. The fire will star off going great and a little while later you'll notice it and it's died way down until almost embers with no pellets coming out into the burn pot, wait a minute or two and the pellets start to come out of the auger opening again and catch fire and bingo you have a nice healthy fire going again. I have never noticed this before in the 7+ years we've owned this stove but then again I've never sat down and watched the thing for hours at a time but law of averages says that within 7 years i'd have seen this type of thing happen before at least once but i cannot recall it doing so. What is going on? I did swap the auger motors a couple of years ago as it appeared the bottom motor (the one that runs constantly) might be getting tired. I did clean out the chimney pipe before the start of the season so it shouldn't be that (thinking vacuum switch here). I do know that if i set my pellet feed level above 3 the fire does seem to go out and stay out so I leave it at 3 even though these past few sub-arctic below zero nights have made me wish that i could set it up to about 6 or 7...any ideas? I don't want to go blindly ordering parts but would rather assess what is wrong even though I am not very mechanically inclined. The stove is my primary source of heat in my home and right now I'm struggling to keep the house at 62 degrees (granted we have had several sub 15 below nights lately). Oil is of course outrageous right now as $2.72 per gallon is the cheapest I've found. Any info on how I could get my stove running properly again would be greatly appreciated
