Everything is working just fine.

Your problems are that you have a DOS file that you're working on with UNIX utilities (get rid of the carriage return characters and you would get something closer to what you were expecting), and you want to join pairs of truncated lines from feedfile.txt; not all truncated lines.

Try (untested since you haven't given us a usable copy of feedfile.txt):
Code:
awk '
BEGIN {		FS = OFS = "|" }
{		sub(/\r/, "") }
NF < 17 {	$1 = save $1; save = $0 }
NF >= 17 {	print; save = "" }
' feedfile.txt > fixed_feedfile.txt
