Creosote buildup inside pellet stove combustion fan

This is a 22 year old Glo King p100 pellet stove. For the most part we've used it on low which may account for the build up. I Didn't use a torch after all. After trying several methods I ended up scraping out the thick buildup with a paint scraper. Yes we've had the unit cleaned every few years but apparently no one thoroughly cleaned the blower out before.

Good god! Are you burning asphalt? I clean our stove every ton of pellets and have never seen anything like that. Maybe you should clean you stove more often. Yikes!

The stove was cleaned by "professionals'' annually but none ever cleaned here or the channels leading from the firebox to the area behind it. Also, when it was installed, the put the incorrect cap on the chimney, which would cause water to drip down the pipe.

If you need to remove the flywheel, do you know what tool is best?
