After week of struggling

.. I have now cracked my flow rate problem and replaced the Aerjec. Clogged is an inadequate adjective for the old one. Gunge and scale to the extreme. It was a wonder that got any flow at all to heat just one radiator.
So spent yesterday doing a really careful job fitting a new Aerjec - perfect. I was able to prove good flow all round. Came to switch on the boiler and ....... pilot light will not ignite. Talk about bad luck / coincidence.
It was fine throughout all my past trauma with blockages.
It's a Netaheat 10-16 with the 407676 control board. All the right sounds are being made from the starting of the fan to the loud relay clicks when I'd expect it to fire. I've looked closely and can't see a spark (although not sure how good my eyes need to be for that).
Fuse is Ok and ignition connection to PCB seems to be sound.
**So I'm looking for opinion, please, as to whether to splash out £50-£60 on a control board (DIY) or whether I need Mr CORGI to look at the gas end of things.**
(Two more years and I'll upgrade, but not yet)
