Resolved I think. The drive chain for the clean elevator was extremely loose. This is one of the issues the service manager at CIH told me might cause a problem. I really had no issues turning either elevator by hand. There was no material of consequence in the clean elevator and none at all in the other. Clean auger had about 50# of corn in it. Going to tighten the chain and put her all back together later in the week. Really don't see anything that would stop it running now. Sure makes a heck of a racket when that clutch slips!
This is the year of the slip clutch for me. Planter, drill, corn head all had issues with one. Not so here, but it did get involved.
