lame plumber
got a call to service one of these, seems the last guy doing it had gone away... What a heap of cack, who could have designed the bleeding things, vertical burner tucked behind another one. So arrived, turned it on to see it worked, cooker didnt, so mentioned the fact. got the burners out, cleared out the crud and soot!!! changed nozzzles etc went for an fga, couldnt get either sample point screw out for an hour.... tried cooker with new photocell, other one was dead on its legs, burn improved a bit, lasted 30 seconds not 5, so went for oil pump or solenoid. owner then mentioned water in tank a while back... so stripped pump for a peak, knackered, and checked drive coupling, knackered as well. So after 4 hours of fighting the pig I retired hurt as I didnt have the coupling in the van.... Back on friday with a pump for the boiler side as well, then prehaps I can get a CO2 reading over 6 on that one, without it wumping away to its self, but that could be down to a blocked chimney, which I gather is being self swept in the mean time. Oh and it was last serviced 18 months ago... really I think not. I will probably block his number in the future like his last techie
