I just came back in from working on my heater. I loosened all attaching screws and wiggled, tweaked, and slightly bent things into alignment. I did not adjust the air shutter.
I turned on the heater and it was much better. The roaring pops and backfires were gone but it didn't have a consistent noise to it and it got worse when I closed the cover. My air shutter was open like in the video and there are 2 notches in the shutter. Maybe they are kind of a preset adjustment for two different capacity heaters.
Anyway I set it like the video but maybe a little nosier. If I don't get any soot I may close it a little more. I am satisfied with it now.
