Got it running cleaned the nozzle which has next to nothing on it. Put the spare photocell on, and I believe both work. I think I had it wired upside down as it will fit correctly in either way up negative to positive. Makes sense. I have another question, the baffle I know on inspection has a...

Thanks, re - photocell. House is on a slopped garden, so the tanks at the top, never had an issue bleeding it before, that said no one serviced the pump so it was a right state when I replaced it.

So it's unlikely to be that, but I can certainly replace it with the other one, as it's the same model of burner, I didn't see anything of it being coded to anything when part referencing if that's what you mean? It was clean, I think I'm going to go through things again with fresh eyes in the...

I tested with a multi meter and had no problems, can they be faulty and still send a false signal? I have a spare which I know works as it was a boiler stripped from a working system well serviced that was replaced due to a jacket failing on the water tank.

Essentially but I can't see any air in the system now.

Finally got around to changing the pump, I even bought a pressure tester to make sure. It's still not firing, changed the batteries in the wireless as they were flashing. Put a fresh nozzle on it before hand but may well go back to changing that with a known new one. You can hear a difference...

Defo learning that the hard way. I mean it doesn't look like it was ever serviced properly other then calibration and nozzle. Could of avoided this whole situation.

Yeh do fear that but how would you know. It's still not running.

Err think I may have found the problem... How is this not part of any service. No wonder the pumps die. Ordered myself a spare filter too. Will clean this one up but that caked up there's no pressure and I've never seen a boiler engineer even look at the pump. Explains why I could get it to go...

I've had a tank sponge in, never had any of much in it bar fuel.

We will find out soon enough I could be completely wrong. But is it a possibility it was a miss mold or the things just still clogged. Or just the pressure sucked in enough gunk to change the spray pattern? I was thinking of sticking in a bath of fuel in a ultrasonic cleaner?

Don't disagree with the sentiment. After watching this, and taking the nozzle off and running it again. I suspect the nozzles already sucked in the sediment left in the line and ate itself internally. I see no signs of water currently at all, though the tank is in need of replacement, and...

Not sure if that's a dig or a compliment to oilheax Oils clear after many runs. Saw a trick of someone pulling air out of the system with a brake caliper style siphon. But there's enough pressure with the oil line open to push fluid directly out of bleeder. My only thought now is taking the...

What filter in the pump where is it? Mines a Worcester system. Would need to do some research on how you change the filters externally without loosing your oil :D
