Yo Mark D ............ Long to no hear

As far as your burner problem > Sounds like everybody is going to have a different answer So here is mine ! throw it away ! .............

HAHA ! it is un-spent fuel and it's laying inside your packing , Then evertime you turn it on again it is burning that un-spent fuel , And it has the potentional to catch on fire. Like the one I just worked on for a buddie of mine . His coils / And packing had fuel laying all thur it , One day when he shut it down-closed the doors got 3 miles down the road and he kept smelling smoke .... he stopped to check it out , Only to find out that his machine was on fire. burnt every wire that was near the burner .

First you gotta find out why it is dumping fuel .... Then you must take off shroud -un-hook coils - get new packing . ........... If you have a local oil-furnace tech in your area I would have them take a gander @ the burner . I have found that is the "best" way " instead of just buying parts guessing.

Are you still doing Caltex ? ...... Have you talked to Kevin ? Just wondering how is is doing !

Take care and shoot me an E-mail sum time when ya gotz time !!
