After several members Spot On advice, The Leisure Line is cranking perfectly. A 1/4" rope gasket around the grates, coupled with a thourough cleaning of pushers, throats and Grates made me realize how precise these beasts are to Air. Even after restoring hundreds of Wood and Coal Stoves, these Stokers are a different animal, challenging, but rewarding to work on. This particular one is for sale, although I know this is not the forum for it. But it seems quiet on the Classified Front, so feel free to reply if Interested. My Brunco 110 cranks heat quicker than the Leisure Line, so as much as I would like to keep it, IT NEEDS A GOOD HOME.
It is nice to always walk out to the man cave/shop, though, and have it be warm 24/7.......I will miss that. Maybe a Stoker is in my future.......

Those are great stoves, I have the Hyfire I (circa 1995) bought it used (from Greg - LSFarm), refurbished it, added Coaltrol and it's been running for almost 7 years now!
