I have been searching before having to post but can't find the answer in previous postings....

Is there a problem or concern by using a larger ash pan then what came with my koker? Will it cause draft problems or any other problems based on your experiences?

Thanks

Ummmmmm........ just make certain it fits. I had forum member Freddy make me 2 ash pans somewhat larger and had to "tweak" them with my SFH a little for the "perfect" fit. No draft problems what so ever and I catch more of the ash which is what I was after in the first place. If you want the "perfect" fit, measure your existing ash pan and use those dimensions.
