At no time did I advise anyone to do anything. I advised on what may be required, so your 'Gas watch' tone is not appreciated thank you.. Your tone is patronising and pretty much uncalled for. Think I'll drop off this thread and let you have it all.

All that has been said is valid, and should be checked first, then, as mrgas says check the temps in / out of plate to plate. Things must be checked before replacing parts

Sorry mate, completely misunderstood the question..duh! The stat will have on the inside a diagram. The power from the clock / programmer usually shown as L generally goes to 1 (unfamiliar with ur new one but a diagram should be with it. The call for heat is usually number 3, this goes to your...

Firstly with the boiler off bleed the rads upstairs, then repressurise the system to between 1 & 1.5 bar Then go outside and check that the condensate is not fdrozen, has this only started with cold weather? Anyway if frozen, pour hot boiling water over the pipe (white). If it isn't insulated...

Need very much to know the model and make. The first thing i would be checking is the Gas pressures (always do the basics first). This is something a qualified guy would have to do mate. With the scant details it would be foolish to offer any concrete advice...I wait with baited breath mate

Gonna have to accept the word on replacement firefronts. Just checked my laptop and i'm guessing your bbf is 57/4 electronic which ceased production in 2005..unlucky mate

Had a look at the "valour" replacements. The ventilation requirements for the baxis is set on the firefronts.. I suspect that the models would have to be identical in every way performance wise. I certainly wouldn't fit one. The best advice ever would be to replace these antiquated last century...

By the sounds of your answer mate, you haven't a clue what you're doing. If you aren't Gas Safe registered you're breaking the law. Get someone in.

Your problem is either system design or more likely the cold feed is blocking up.

may as well try it, you might even be successful mate. Sometimes we just stumble over the solution and the theory plops into place!? I really can't imagine what it could be. The pipe size changes must have an effect on the flow, just try reducing the speed if at all possible. Don't think you can...

wots with err yeah?

I think you'll find that if you read Gas regs pertaining to working on Gas Appliances as opposed to the definition of "work" on Gas Fittings, it states you have to test the flue; combustion;burner pressure; and safe functioning. So, when you eventually fit your stat mate, unless you're Gas Safe...

Had a prob like that recently with a worcester with one of those new grundfos external pumps. The one where u press the + or - for speed. It was gugling, wasn't sure of the prob so reduced speed and all was well. I wonder if the piping is ok on ur system? to ensure good flow I'd fire some fernox...
