are you really registered? ( YAWN ) looking at your previous posts I doubt it!

I would personally still insist on power flushing your system before fitting any new boiler, that would put me at 2 days to fit, you mention having 22mm pipe I would still want to check that it is correctly sized for your new boiler. Dirty systems, under sized gas pipes are a sure fired way...

it's normally down to the manufacturer, I would go to the boiler manufacturers website and try to down load the pdf for your boiler

yep get to the clinic it will only get worse :D

when the central heating is running what is the gauge reading then? cleaning the plate to plate is possible if you feel confident, but would you know what to look for with regards to it being dirty and how to clean it? The thing i cannot understand is that if you have had BG out, why hasn't...

you need to check if it is dripping out side, if the prv is letting by you need to get this fixed, when your system is running what is the reading on the pressure gauge? Your problems could be as simple as a dirty plate to plate especially if you have been topping up your system for a while...

well i see Ideal haven't changed and still suck big bad donkeys when it comes to customers, a mate working in Hull needed some parts that day, so rather than having to come back over the bridge wanted to pick up from the factory, no problem! but we want £20 extra if you pick it up from us!! are...

back boiler unit, it is the boiler behind the fire :D

far as i know you can still get all the parts for this boiler, but you will need to order the gas valve as you have pointed out by the honeywell part number, keep the old beast running as long as you can, they don't make them like that anymore, the day will come when it will probably spring a...

hehe you would say that :D :D :D

sadly it sounds like you have already taken the combustion chamber front off, this is beyond the scope of DIY, you really need a RGI out to sort it, it certainly wont fire up without the combustion chamber front on

actually this boiler has a flow switch which are prone to failure, so it could be that if the boiler does not attempt to fire, simple continuity test on it will prove if it is working or not

if you have the boiler just in hot water mode does it fire up? if not could just be a diaphram

or via the condensate if you was to remove the trap Tony

would be very unlikely for a boiler not to have a trap built in, the trap on a boiler is used for a different reason than a normal sink trap, the trap in the boiler creates a water barrier to stop products of combustion from leaving the appliance via the waste pipe

sounds like the diaphragm needs replacing, as for the pressure rising that sounds like your expansion vessel either needs recharging or replacing, if you look outside you will probably see water dripping from the pressure relief pipe, if that is the case you will also need to have the pressure...

time to get another RGI in, sounds a pretty simple fault to me, it is a fairly simple boiler inside and remember you shouldn't have to pay for any parts supplied that do not fix the problem

on some of the danfoss commercial valves there is a little clip to stop the pin coming out the valve, plus nobody warned the op that he could pull the pin out and that water will come out so be prepared to put the pin back in, sorry had a few drinks tonight so not explain myself well :D :D

is that why i got to danfoss valves that only need the gland releasing and everything cleaning up, i meant in general for anyone that might be reading this post :D

tell us more about your boiler! do you have a 24kw or 30 kw? run the tap slowly, does it get hot? also put your hand on the left hand pipe at the bottom of the boiler, is it getting hot while the hot water is on? it could be your divertor valve playing up, plastic inside and they break easily
