You have to prime the fuel line because there are air bubbles in it and it is causing the burner to shut off. There is a screw or bolt on the front of the burner near where the oil line attached that needs to be undone. Place a canister under the burner and switch the burner back on. Oil and air bubbles will stream down into the canister. Once the oil stream is smooth and no more air bubbles are coming out the line is primed and can reattach the screw/bolt at which point your burner should fire up and be all set. Without doing this the oil line will remain air bound and this will continue non-stop.





You may need a technician to do this if you are not experienced or comfortable doing it.Since running out of oil, my furnace will trip and i will have to reset the red button. any way to fix this?
You also need a tune up done to the boiler to replace the nozzle and inside pump screen. and when you run out of oil, after filling tank leave burner off for an hour so oil can settle in tank.
