Waste Motor Oil / Firelake 315 leak?
« on: January 11, 2016, 07:56:36 pm »
I have a Firelake 315 heater and when the burner shuts off, the nozzle leaks out the residual oil in gun slide assembly. I do not believe the solenoid is leaking because the fuel supply holds pressure when the burner is off and the the leak eventually stops. It did not use to do this. I'm not sure what is suppose to keep the residual oil in the gun to begin with.

Waste Motor Oil / Tank outside, cold affecting psi?
« on: January 02, 2016, 09:26:54 am »
I am setting up a used waste oil shop heater I bought and have the oil tank outside. During the day the heater runs fine, but at night it trips the flame sensor because the pressure drops. I'm assuming this is due to the oil getting colder at night (around 0°F). Would going to a metered pump solve this issue or must the oil be kept warmer?
