    I think that you have an air flow problem. Exhaust fan running too slow, ash blockage (is the area behind the ash pan clear?) OAK plugged, passages behind firebox area clogged, etc. Have you removed the exhaust motor and run it off a wall socket to check for speed?

    DING DING WE HAVE A WINNER I rechecked the oak and low and behold a maple leaf inside. I placed some mesh over the oak and all seems well in my home once again. I thank you all so much for the help. and its nice to see sparks flying once again.
