Have a 24 yr old Burnham oil fired boiler. Last week it decided to stop working. My “go to guy” (he is the go to guy in this county) discovered a bad slider joint on the backside of the circuit board which had opened the neutral. We soldered a jumper wire on the circuit board and got the furnace running. This same thing had happened about 8 years ago discovered & fixed it the same way. Eventually replacing the original board when we got a replacement (current board now)
My problem is the T&P valve is leaking. He got a 30 PSI relief valve to me and I replaced the old one. It leaks, since I noticed the PSI on the furnace going above 30psi. Think before hand it ran around 20+psi, Temp is 170 F.
I would call him , but tomorrow he has shoulder surgery, last Thursday his mother passed away with funeral last Monday. He got me the relief valve Monday night. Just not going to bother him— small rural town where everyone helps everyone. Wife and I spent most of day helping serve luncheon at her funeral.
Need some ideas as to what to do.
Thanks for any help.
