Yes I left is at 5mm, it was 12mm when I got there :lol: FYI - he told me tonight he has had the combustion chamber cover off and looked at the baffles etc. Wonder if he fiddles? Any other ideas?

Hi, Yes it is a snorkel system, looked clear and the FG was checked when it was fitted. I can't think what to do next, maybe as there are no vents in the cupboard, when the door is closed it is choking its self? But then it must have run OK when it was fitted. BTW the customer has...
