pilot jet/thermocoupler on Old Glow-worm Capricorn boiler

[jogger321]

I need to get to the thermocoupler and check the pilot jet for dirt/blockage on this old back boiler..

I can't fathom how to remove the front gas fire to get to the pilot jet and the thermocoupler it looks is a really inaccessible place...tucked right at the bottom left of the back of the boiler...Anyone done this job..I know its an ancient boiler but having the pilot go out is the 1st problem with it for years and it has up till now kept going fine..What do I need to do to get access??

Also I know spares are scarce..any ideas on the best source for parts for these old girls?

Thanks

Unfortunately as this involves removing the gas fire etc this is a job for a corgi and not diy
