If he didn't adjust it previously all this will do is make matters worse.

yes, it could make it cycle worse. i did not say it would fix it. his
prob could very well be any number of furnace part related probs.

this was just a suggestion for a easy check he could do himself.
all the heat anticipator setting is for is to match the amp draw thro
the thermostat for correct furnace cycles. most run around 4 or 6 on
the settings.

for some strange reason, the pointer seems to get moved occasionally.
ive adjusted quite a few of them and that turned out to be the only
problem. as for burning it out just by changing the setting, its not
very likely. usually the only thing that will burn it out is a low
voltage short from the furnace controls or a high voltage related
surge thro the thermostat wire.

at any rate, the best thing to do is to call a reputable serv comp and
let a tech take a look at it.
