Moved in to a new house and found that the Riello oil burner wasnt working so got a technician out who fixed it. Said it was the pump not been in use for 8 months. Was working well for about a hour then shut it self off (LOCK OUT) I had a quick look at it and found theres no oil going to jet. The pipe is clear plenty of oil running through and all air out. So is the oil pump U/S. Any reply would be great thanks.

It may be the motor capacitor mate? Get your guy out again to check the burner.

Your findings indicate that the oil pump solenoid has failed and is not letting oil through.

Iwill get tech to look at that friday. Thanks

It may be worth mentioning to your guy about the new Bio-Fuel/Kero mix that is being introduced Jan 12, where all kero will have bio mixed with it. That's going to knock the stuffing out of burner oil pumps!!
