has anyone got any suggestion on the possible reason and how to resolve the following:-
Having let my oil tank run dry and having had it refilled I cannot get oil to the boiler. I have check at the stop cock by loosening the coupline and I get oil, I have check both couplings at the filter and I get oil, I have also blead the filter but I can leave the isolation valve open with the flexi pipe disconnected at the boiler and I get no oil?

There is probably sludge or air causing an air lock, use a Vacuum pump to pull the oil through, probably best to get an oil service engineer in, as it can be messy in inexperienced hands!! ;)

Thanks, it was the fire valve, all working again. Ah heat and a hot shower, life is wonderful.
