    The absolute worst thing to replace on my beast, I won't miss it in the least.

    Did you have one like mine previously? Or do all stoves work that way?

    My igniter is inside the air intake which has to come off to do a replacement. The bolt that holds the air intake to the stove body is hard to get to on the left hand(looking from the stove front)side.

    He finally got the igniter extension harness all the way under the unseen tunnel and through the tiny hole in the floor in the back...... It's not heating up. I went to get the cute little assorted bus fuse kit I ordered for this, it's MIA :picard: I'll go hunting in the dungeon of tools tomorrow and hope it's there.

    I believe he said he was done with using a stove. I could be misremembering though.

    I think you are correct. He and the boss are using dino juice, Due to health issues from my understanding.

    Not sure he's keeping the stove for back up/Ambiance or planning on removal though?

    Anything like that should be tested outside the stove before attempting installation.....even new products can be defective, and think of all the work you save.

    Got it, you have to do what is best for yourself and the misses. Now, I hope you get your generator in. Maybe get one of those that start up on their own? Neighbor has one. I think it starts up automatically once a month.
    My son lives here and helps a lot with our pellets. He brings them to our back door for us. I only have to step out and put them on a flatbed to bring them in and to the stove. No stairs here for us. VA is installing a new ramp for us. This one will be a legal pitch. They are also putting an automatic lift on the van for new scooter. Walking is so hard for me, painful and unsteady.
