We ran out of oil.
Having filled the tank, the boiler now keeps locking out. The temperature outside has been as low as -16 C, so I had to heat up the small amount of pipework outside that delivers oil from the tank to house. The boiler fired up and ran for 12 hours or so, but has locked out again (still low temperatures)
I just cleaned the filter, which wasn't too bad. My question - do I need to bleed the system? I'm handy, but not a plumber and can't find an obvious place to bleed. Help! It's getting very cold here!
Thanks in advance.

I've now bled the system and checked the KBB? button is in on the coil next to the filter. Still no joy and the boiler won't fire. Any suggestions?
