Waste Motor Oil / Re: Types of oil

Thanks for your input. I will get the rebuild done. Do I just ask for a 9-5 nozzle from a parts house?

I am not sure of the model. I don't think burner has been rebuilt and 6-8 yrs old. Been thinking of having that done this summer. Tried posting some pictures, but says files are to big.

I am burning a Shenandoah Waste oil boiler. I have tried to cut Motorcycle oil with diesel, but doesnt seem to help.
Its weird, but if I open the boiler door and rub a rag over the nozzle and electrodes, when I close it, it will fire right up. Maybe needs new electrodes? Maybe nozzle size, using 30609 -8? Electrode adjustment? I tried to attach a picture, not sure if it worked.

I was burning used oil from diesel trucks and equipment and it burned very well with almost no problems. I switched over to oil from a Harley shop and now having trouble with it igniting. If i turn the air pressure down, i can get it to ignite and after it runs a few minutes, can turn pressure back up to 12psi and it will stay running. Next time it tries to fire, it wont go and go through the process again. I have put some diesel fuel in the oil to cut it, but doesnt seem to help. Ideas? Thanks in advance.
