    Curing time length

    gas burner problems in smoker

    I recently put a gas burner with a solenoid valve running of my Pid  in my smokehouse. Everything works like it should except when I shut the door the last 3/4" to close I lose my flames. I have 2 - 2" intake vents for the burner. I take it I need more intake air for the burner?
