That was my point.

When you said heat gun. I thought open flame torch.. Knowing the electric heat guns can hit 500*F is nice though ;D


Testing to open door would be a way to go.. put it to 400* and open the door.
See if the temp drops. It may just Bump up the duty cycle of the burner.
(with door closed burner is on 50%@400*F, with door open burner is on 95%@400*F)
