I checked the cover as I removed it today to clean the stove. i shut the stove down and checked the cover. It seems like it's all in line.
In the morning I will shut it down again and check everything again. Thank you for the tips!
 
Photos or video would be a great help for diagnosing

The flame is coming out of the end of the ramp on the sides. It's happening when the stove is burning the hottest.

TY for your help!

I would turn your feed rate down to 1, and check the vacuum per the manual. You may have too much vacuum.
