Hi Jim, After a full service and resetting the mix it was still burbling at start up. We also swapped the solenoid and even tried a new pump but still burbled. Only way to get it quieter was to completely open up the air. You'd think this would make it worse but it helped a fair bit. My...

Hi guys, Firstly thanks for all your input.... I've managed to get an engineer round. The problems was that it was running REALLY rich and was sooted up to hell and back. He's cleaned it up, changed the nozzle - a new one - setup the mix, got the CO2 dead on at 10.5% (supposed to be...

Thanks oilman.... but the B52 rumble is when the burner lights/fires/ignites during normal usage and also during relight after a backfire. The fan, motor etc during the initial stages of getting upto pressure etc, the first 10 secs before of a light up are nice and quiet. Its only when the...

Yeah I thought the GAH manual looked suspiciously like my Thermecon manual! lol Thanks again for your help, I really appreciate it. The backfiring has seemed to go away today but I dont trust it as far as I can throw it. I'll be getting someone in ASAP - prob needs a service and a...

BoilerMan2 - thanks for your suggestions of the Max1. I've found a manual and compared the dimensions. Height of the installed Max1 is the same, the width is a bit less - atleast it should fit! And all the mid points etc are all the same. Only 1 issue - appologies if im being a complete...

Its a wall mount 50/80. The oil level is a little low but still has 300+ litres in it. Very plausable though. Interestingly, after a complete cool down this afternoon, tonight it seemed to be running OK - burning for 10+mins - without a relight until the unit warmed up. As soon as everything...

Thanks for your reply, I'm hoping to get someone out soon. I was mainly wondering about which model to replace it with - when the final push "to throw it in the bucket" comes lol I can then present it to the engineer and say "I've got a gift, please fit it". Thankfully I've got an...

Hi, I've been looking around on the internet for ages and I cant seem to find an answer to this question.... I hope someone here can help me out! I've got a Thermecon wall mount boiler with a : Minor 1 "300" H.E.B. 50/80 burner. I'm considering replacing the whole burner however I dont...
