I have an opportunity to get for FREE a GMG Daniel Boone, but the Auguer is not working.  How hard is it to fix this?

Not hard, they have the repair video on their web-site. Jump on this one quick.

Here is the link for the auger motor...only 95.95

Went and picked it up, brought it home and took it apart and cleaned it. It was VERY dirty, but cleaned up good with scraping and shop vac. Took it out to patio and plugged it in and to my surprise the auger was working, set it to 225 and it came up to temp. Appears maybe just needed a good cleaning, maybe auger was jammed with debri, not sure but nice to ha s a fully functional pellet grill now.

Free is always the best kinda deal.  The Daniel Boone is GMG's most popular patio model. GMG also has great customer service if you ever need them.

Enjoy your new pellet grill and lets see some cooks on it  :)
