New owner here. I filled the pellet hopper to the top before I ran it for the first time. When I started it the auger would run for a couple seconds then stop. The auger wouldn't start again unless I turned it off. I dumped out most of the pellets and Eventually, the auger started to turn without me turning the grill on and off. I'm using "Bear Mountain" pellets and I hear they are pretty decent pellets. So, I don't think that's the problem. Occasionally, the temp will go down and I can't get it to get back up to temp unless I put it in "riot" mode. It's happens when I'm running it at lower temperatures. It doesn't seem to happen at higher temperatures.
