Thanks everyone! It's fixed!

Without Mark, RBM, Phil Again, Siskuwihane, J. Clarke, starrin, & Paul, I
wouldn't have figured it out!

The Burnham oil furnace is working beautifully now!

With all the emails about combustion, I felt comfortable looking a little
further at what was rally going on. I cleaned the nozzle again and then I
cleaned the air intake around the nozzle.

All seems well now!

BTW, it was always firing (sometimes it wouldn't stay lit however) so there
was never any "pooling" that some of the posts warned about.

Thank you all so much for your help.
You are one smart bunch!!!


good for you!!!

Please consider taking some of the money you saved and getting a CO
alarm for your home in any case...

and make sure there is no blockage in the flue or chimney
