glow worm fuel saver
 
Hi,

I`m having problems with a glow worm fuel saver. It runs through its start
up, fan runs, sparks and fires. and then 10 seconds later it stops and wont
start for 10 minutes. Its not air locked and the pump is running or over
heating and the thermostat seems ok.

Has anyone any ideas? or even a copy of the manufactures instructions? I
cant find any on the glow worm site.

Thanks Andy.

Is there a blockage or maybe the pump's not working

It sounds like the water isn't getting out of the heat exchanger and the
overheat stat is cutting out

I thought of that. The heat exchanger gets no more than hand heat. And what
little heat there is is going to the rads.
