    Rayburn 368k explosive ignition

    When you take the boiler burner out and remove all the baffles, you'll see the end of the glowplug sitting in a small reservoir. That reservoir has a small dividing wall and the wick should be draped over that. They can get pretty cruddy and may no longer resemble a wick but if it truly has...

    Rayburn 368k explosive ignition

    Those that think that way are absolutely right, they are archaic piles of crap and I would have thought not seeing one in 20 years should be considered a blessing. Yes the baffles are warped but affecting the flue draft suggests a level of sophistication that I suspect is highly unwarranted...

    Rayburn 368k explosive ignition

    Sorry I probably used the wrong terminology. What I meant was that the boiler thermostat cuts in and kills the boiler. I spent the day working on the evil thing. Even went as far as verifying the ignition sequence visually by leaving the burner baffles and thermal blocks out and it all checks...

    Rayburn 368k explosive ignition

    God how I hate this thing! So the problem with this thing aside from it being filthy and inefficient is that the boiler keeps cycling and on restarting has an explosive ignition. I've checked and rechecked the levels of the boiler burner, flushed the central heating pipes and all the rads and...

    Mains Inlet through loft

    Was asked to look at a Mains inlet today that the property owner wants moving. It currently comes into the hall in black HDPE , through a concrete slab and about 6 inches up the wall in copper, then poly up the wall and through the unheated loft space. It's not pretty, but at least whoever...

    Gas Pipe exiting from side of meter box

    Trade cash account, perhaps it's the fact that I don't have a credit account with them, perhaps it's because I don't put enough business their way, but when I'm getting better prices from toolzone and screwfix that's not easy to do.
