oil burner conks out
 

I had a tuneup 1 month ago on my whole house hot water baseboard oil burner.
I have not noticed anything else, but the burner has stopped working twice,
several days apart. Both times the system started immediately when I pressed
the red button. Any ideas?

Yes, call back the outfit that did the tuneup. They may not have
adjusted something properly. You may be low on oil and the pump is not
working properly, or the filter that should have been changed was not
and is clogged.
Give them a call.

When it was tuned up did they replace the ceramic insulators?

They can develop pinhole size breakdowns
