Glow worm Capricorn burner pressure?

[rab250]

Hi a bit of a blast from the past here. Does anyone know the burner pressure this backboiler should be? The pilot light knocks the boiler off every time it fires up making me think that It's burning to high and pulling the pilot away from the thermocouple. Any ideas ?

look at the data plate, if thats missing I tend to think boilers need replacing

Pilot is fine . It would burn all week until the main burner kicks in. I will just have to gas rate it and adjust it that way it would just have been easier to set the burner pressure. Cheers anyway
