Heating works fine, hot water works fine for about 3-4 minutes then burner goes off and then re lights within 60-90 seconds? System pressure is fine, have adjusted the temperature control and still does the same thing regardless of water temp. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Due to start training as a plumber and want to start building my tools up now to save me spending in bulk at a later date. I appreciate it does take a long time to build up all of the tools needed but what tools are essential kit like pipe cutters and basin wrench etc :confused:
