Discuss Gas smell on ideal RS 50 boiler in the Central Heating Forum area at PlumbersForums.net

Recently noticed a gas smell coming from my ideal classic RS50 boiler. Cadent have been out and confirmed a small leak and capped off the gas. The question I have though is that the gas smell only appears when the boiler fires up not when the pilot is burning normally. Gas smell continues as boiler burns higher and is coming from the bottom left of the boiler. Any advice on what it could be? I thought it may be a faulty gas valve. Engineer is coming out tomorrow but I’m just curious as to what people think.
 
Cadet will cap the gas due to the smell of gas so wait for the engineer
