I have. After storage for a short time an insect will build a little
nest in the pipe INSIDE the stove between the orifice and the burner.
This will cause the burner to burn very slow and sometimes backfire.
The manual says to open the stove and check this out every time before
you ignite after storage. Upside is you can clean it out by just
shoving a paper towel all the way through and opening it up. No parts
to buy!=20
I KNOW. It happened to me! Actually it's a funny story now, but my
wife was a bit peeved when it backfired in the kitchen. See the lights
were out (All electric kitchen) and I was going to show off cause
after all me and the boy were Scouts. We didn't need not stinkin'
'lectricity. We'll after the stove blew up I got out the manual and
guess what......
