He's now ordered a new main heat exchanger and a also a plate heat
exchanger and will be back Tuesday to fit.

out and re-filled before fitting the new bits. So my suspicions of it
being H/Exchanger have been confirmed and it looks like our trust old
boiler will be virtually as good as new when he's finished and should
live for another 16+ years
