Thanks guys for the quick responses. I have the furnace now working better.
After a thorough cleaning of the burner, nozzle and combustion chamber there was little difference so I thought that the only thing it could be was fuel.
My waste oil is 95% full synthetic. I read that some furnaces don't like that so I lowered the flash point with a little #2 fuel oil (10% or so) and things seem to be ok.
What are your thoughts?

Hi Y'all, I am Dwayne and I have recently installed a Clean Energy 140 furnace. Its a used unit with 1000 hours and this is my first kick at the can with waste oil heat. I don't really know what to expect from it and I have a couple of questions for the more experienced.
I have what looks to be a healthy flame, fires right up with little to no smoke while running. But..
I have unburnt fuel in the combustion chamber after running and smoke up the stack after shutting down.
Is this normal?
I have the settings for air flow and pressure set to factory and 1 psi of oil pressure.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
