The winch motor was one thing I couldn't figure out what it might do. Looking forward for more information.
Wow! 200' that's a long ways.

Yes 200 feet, I think that I read somewhere you want to limit the travel to 150 but with a fuel supply that folks give me, Why not ?
The winch motor is a new set up, I used to run the scraper or de coke shaft with a windshield wiper motor, it worked okay but sometimes would still plug up,
The winch motor was a broken piece of junk, had one of the planetary ring gears loused up, so ground off the gears and only operating it off of 1 planet gear, so it spins preety fast, and shakes and knocks all the coagulated junk that builds up in the delivery pipe,
the timer, It works off of a little air compressor off of a car that had air ride suspension, hooked to a pressure switch, I can control the bleed off of the compressor to get the desired 1/2 hour bleed down, and when the pressure switch is engaged it powers a starter solenoid it takes it 5 seconds to build from 90 to 125 giving me my "Run time" on the scraper,
I know that I could build a electronic timer but not that savy, on that stuff, and its just junk kicking around, Actually the whole stove itself was pulled out of a scrap pile,
I just finished and in the process of testing running off a normally closed solenoid, that is powered up by 3 thermal switches, Redundant high temp off switches , and 1 90* cold off, so far so good although I may have to open the solenoid up a tad more, been drilling the orifices to get the desired burn rate,
