I know OP is already over it, but the one thing I didn't see answered anywhere here is how big the splits are? These things seem to like 'em chunky.
I know I have read of others having similar issues from wood split too small, which can cause more rapid off gassing and firebox/cat being overwhelmed...especially if the MC is really low like the <15% that OP mentioned.
And once again. all this talk of low draft/high draft and nobody suggest buying an inexpensive meter to test it...that would have probably happened on the first page if this was posted in the boiler room.
