SPARK PLUG:
Clean and re-gap every 600 hours of operation, or
replace as needed. After removing the spark plug,
clean the terminals with a wire brush. Re-gap the
terminals to 0.140” (3.5mm). See Figure 4.
PHOTOCELL:
The photocell should be cleaned using a cotton
swab dipped in alcohol or water at least once per
heating season, or more depending on conditions.
See Figure 5.

decrease pressure. Correct pump pressure is as
follows:

80T-KFA
4.2 PSI (0.29 BAR)
140T-KFA
