I have an Equinox and the air control is sticking real bad. Once you shut it down it won’t open back up. I’ve always been able to shake it and get it to open but now it getting worse. I know this has been discussed before. I see that Hearthstone has three technical bulletins Two from 2009 and one from 2015. Anyone know which to choose?

Good info, thanks for sharing. I would consider lubing that area too with a dry lubricant like graphite powder.
