I have an intermittent fault on an oil-fired boiler - 2 to 4 times a day
the
boiler will 'lockout' - a safety feature should the flame fail or ignition
fail to give satisfactory start. A visiting engineer has replaced the
motor
as he thought the bearings were noisey and perhaps were 'sticking' when
they
got hot - this has not solved the problem... He's now stuck as he couldn't
get the fault to replicate whilst he was here - obviously, now he's gone,
it
happens - though as I say, on an intermittent basis.

There's a reset button inside - which works everytime to restart it... -
but
clearly this is not good as I like the idea of automatic central
heating...

Anybody with experience of this type of boiler here who can give any
advice
/ pointer where to start looking?



Which model of burner is fitted to the boiler?
