unbent paperclip (or the like )can also work. “Never! Never! Never! Enlarge or alter these
holes. Do not use a rag to wipe the inside of the burner, because you will be pushing carbon
into these holes. If needed, use a wire brush. Now replace the 1/4” clean out plug, be sure to
use some sealer and don’t over tighten. Replace the superheater. Be sure all four feet are flat
on the bottom of the burner base. Replace the burner ring. Note that the correct way is with the
disk down. Reconnect the fuel feed and overflow lines.
Cleaning Fuel Lines
Any blockage in the fuel line from the oil-metering valve to the burner can be cleaned by
removing the clean-out plug situated directly under the burner. The plug must be replaced
with tape sealant and checked for leaks. The fuel lines themselves can be cleaned with
compressed air or a pipe cleaner to remove any blockages. Tap the fuel line to relieve air
locks.
