I just bought a second hand pellet stove. I tested it and the auger worked, etc. so I bought the materials and put a hole in my wall and set it all up. Now the auger seems to lose power and jam all the time. I have vacuumed the pellets out and started over. I am going to buy a new bag of pellets and try again but I am really frustrated. The motor was replaced by the previous owner last year. Do not know what to do to fix the problem? Any suggestions? Live up north where there are no professionals to call on for help but I am pretty handy at fixing things myself if I know where to start.

Because the large number of different stoves and manufacturers... it would help if you started with Manufacturer and model number.

It is a Whitfield Advantage Pellet Stove manufactured by Pyro Industries.
