The burner on my old (1974) Bock oil fired water heater (model 32E) is a Wayne, model mp 98. In that the unit is so old I can not find any information on what nozzle to use or what are the correct electrode settings. Where can I find this information?

Bock M/N: 32E
Max Input: 0.75 x 80A

The 0.75 is the max. gph size of the nozzle
the 80A is the type (80deg, Hollow)

http://www.bockwaterheaters.com/technical/manuals.html

The nameplate on the unit should have the input listed, in gph. that's another way to know the size of the nozzle needed. input = nozzle size
