Frosty, I probably went the equivalent of a 1/4 turn at 1 hr increments yesterday and got the same results. Then I thought maybe the settings were off from factory so I started over at 2.5 turns out from bottom. I tried that, only leaning the bottom, with no results. Figured I should ask before ruining something. I was trying to get temps up, even with foil only got to 112, presumably b/c I couldnt get it moving.
