Old combustion blower 1.75 amp never wavered in RPM. New combustion blower (Pellethead .95 amp) starts up at a proper RPM then after a couple minutes it goes limp, i.e. decreases in RPM very significantly. Meanwhile the stove now chews way more than a bag / 24 hr when it didn't previously. I can coax the combustion blower to get back up to speed by putting the stove in test mode. Pressure switch bypassed. ESP cleaned, black wire, dipswitch 5 off, etc...

Help appreciated!
