Thank you for the input Nogas. I replaced the high fire timer and my furnace burned out in about 6 hours. Thinking that maybe I read the manual wrong, I swapped the timers and pu the old one in the BTU timer and replaced the old high fire timer. She has been singing like a song since then! Plenty of heat and the fuel oil furnace now sits idle again! Thanks again for the help! Muggsy

I tested them with the pellets in them. I am thinking my timer is going bad. I re fired the furnace and it ran pretty good for a couple hours then the little green light on the high fire timer (which tells augers to send pellets I think) went dark and it hasn't augered in any pellets. I am not even hearing the augers run....

I hooked direct power to the augers and both work fine. I re fired the furnace and now see that my high fire timer doesn't have the green light on that it usually does. I am thinking a timer failure. Anyone disagree with my findings? Is there something else I should be looking at?

currently i have a "mushroom cloud" on top of the pot. I didn't know there was a pellet conversion kit. I bought the unit used...from a dealer that was using it in his warehouse with pellets. My high fire setting is Red at .2 and Green at 1.5. Low fire/BTU setting is at 1.5 on both red and green which should be 90k btu. It seems to only do this when the temps rise. At 40 degrees and up. I have had the cumbustion gate open a 1/4 but just opened it to half to see if it makes a difference.

I burn pellets in an LDJ 620-10 A-Maize-Ing Heat furnace. I am not getting a complete burn of my pellets. My ash pan is full of smaller charred pellets. I have the furnace set on 90k BTUs. It seems to me I need more air and less augering in of new pellets. Does anyone know how to adjust the settings for this? I have a 6 inch chimney about 26 feet in the air. It drafts pretty well, in my estimation. Near as I can tell I can only adjust the BTUS....any help would be appreciated. Muggsy
