hello all,
please help if you can. i bought my fe 100 used so i dont have a manual. sometimes when i start my my fe, the digital temp reading stays at whatever the outside temp is, so it keeps adding pellets. just now i put a small handful of pellets in the burn chamber that i cleaned out. turn temp to i guess the 250 mark. the temp is on 70. i watch as smoke starts comming out the pipe. put my meat on. notice the temp is still on 70. wait about 5 more minutes. open door to look at the burn chamber, got a good burn going. look at temp, still at 70. cut off the fe. wait a couple minutes, turn back on to 250 mark, the temp reads 305. what am i adoing wrong. temp is falling down. this has happened almost everyother time i cook. fe 100 was made in november '05. i love this thing, just need to learn it. thanks for any help.
