We have a worschester heatslave 20/25 the fan runs but no oil is present at the injector the boiler has not gone into lockout there is oil present at the supply pipe (silver braided flexi) is it a control unit, is oilman there?? it is getting cold, is there an easy fix for tonight??

no oil at bleedscrew? But oil in the flex pipe..hmmm

Maybe take of the pipe and check the hole in which it screws to check for any debris maybe blocking it.

and silly question but make sure u have enough in the tank??

 

[oilman]

It could be the pump, or the solenoid, or something else. No there's no easy fix for tonight. It's not that cold.............yet.

Enough oil in tank watchman says 3 like I say the boiler is not locking out which it did once years ago when we ran out of oil (blockades) remember them?

 

[oilman]

If it's running the fan, not firing, and not locking out, you have a serious problem. Get someone in.

It was the control unit and the ignition unit both GOOSED now replaced £160.00 boiler working again.

Ahhhhh, that's the second one with that fault I know of. The repair man will no doubt have done a combustion test and left you with the results. What is the CO2 reading?

It's the molecular formula for the compound known as Carbon Dioxide.
