We have reconnected all pipes and bled them. the furnace will not stay running, nor will the heat run through the pipes. We did bleed the fuel line...any suggestions?!?!?

Are your boiler controls working, and adjusted right? Is the circulator pump working... are all the valves open?.. are you heating with Gas Or oil?.. do you get fire?

well we use oil and we think all is well with the valves because the pipes upstairs did get warm and the furnace di fire because it ran three times for a short while then kicks off for no apparent reason <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by R-12guy:

Hi rajom:

I suggest that you call a serviceman. Oil burners need professional service. If you just keep resetting it, you could cause an explosion. Thanks. John.
