Where was the fgt taken from?
Hi best,
I used the hole that has been drilled near bottom centre of the flue near were it meets the boiler.
I assume you mean a hole drilled in the actual flue?
I just was checking that, because was thinking you maybe were using the cleaning door test point, which would be too hot.
Ideally on a standard efficiency oil boiler the flue test hole should be away from top of boiler a little - 300mm if possible in my opinion.
Are the boiler baffles in good condition plus staggered properly and shell clean?
If all correct then your nozzle maybe faulty
I edited my above post and added a couple of points to check
Yes there was a hole from previous services. All is in good order internally and baffles back in correct order. I might pop back tomorrow and try another nozzle, the flue is the old type with enamel coating on bottom half
Thank you for your reply
Doesn’t happen often, but sometimes a faulty brand new nozzle causes bother.
I saw a 120 Warmflow Bluebird that was burning serious and put pure bitumin coating (literally) on inner shell. Turned out it was the service idiot had just prior to this, put a new nozzle - a 0.5 instead of a 1.0 gallon Danfoss nozzle. Was seriously overaired
Would that kind of temperature be a real drama?
