    WHY! Time to buy a new exhaust blower for the pp60. This thing is about as reliable as a drunk guy on a date. :headbang::headbang:

    ARGH! After having just gone thru replacing the distribution blower on one of my stoves, I feel your pain. Isn't it always the case that it can't be during relatively warm weather that these things go bad, but is always during the coldest snaps?

    Hope you get it back up and running quickly!

    My new beefy 1.75 amp combustion blower is scheduled to arrive tomorrow.
    But depending on what time it gets to the post office, they may not have it to me until Saturday.
    I'm eager to swap out the whimpy original one i popped in last week.

    Friday there is 3 to 7 inches of snow called for, and all of this is happening in the last week before my powerlifting meet.
    I'm worn down from months of training, and even if i felt better, this is a time when, ideally, i would be doing nothing except my last lifts, and sleeping and eating.

    The motor isn't as big a deal as the snow could be, but i just feel like whining to someone.

    I was young and unreliable once :rofl: :lol: might have been a little bit of a drinker too:whistle: There’s a few ladies in the world who could testify to that:rofl: :lol:

    If I had to do the whole dating thing again I’d probably just stay single:rofl: :lol: It’s easier :whistle::rofl: :lol:

    Sorry Pete. We're playing with fire here (haha pun intended), no doubt we will need to replace a major part when its freezing outside, and SBI is minimum 2 weeks out. Glad you have the wood stove and furnace :yes:
