    The flange on the old pot is splitting. I can use it as long as I am careful with my burn pot seating and use a gasket.

    I saw Don's comment that it's under warranty. Is the replacement burn pot going to be any better that this one? It sound's like this is an ongoing issue.

    Sorry to hear of the stroke STB, wish you a quick successful recovery. It happened around the same time I left for France and I haven't read any forum threads all summer so I was in the dark:picard:
