I always appreciate watching someone apply logic and methodology when troubleshooting. Great work.

Gloves, moving Hydrocarbons away from the sparking thing, general not getting dead from fire... Is Prudence in the shop? Carefulling.

This is the best DIY repair video I have ever seen! Concise, step by step, and logical! Explains why to check each item. Dude you have found your calling. Find other household items to repair. Boost your subs? Better yet add a channel. Don't get me wrong, keep doing the original stuff as well. We love it! Screaming gummy bears! LOL!!!

I have watched this Video lots before Mr Brilliant EM. I love fixing this sort of gas burner kit too. The reason why I've commented, is because your Doggie is Bloody Fuc#iing gorgeous. Dogs are the Bloody best. We Couldn't of Evolved or Survived without them.

So this is the channel AvE does when he's not drunk?

"I like to keep the slit nice and clean." Don't we all?

Pretty much the same thing as the boiler on a hydrovac, I have had the same failure from a faulty thermostat. Cool to watch you diagnose it, the more failure scenarios a person experiences the better a person understands them and the easier they become to diagnose. Thanks for the video.

Thanks for sharing and allowing us to live vicariously through your success.

A hot air gun (or hair dryer) and a can of freeze spray are super useful to have around when troubleshooting intermittent failures. Things that might only fail rarely and be hard to find can be made to work and fail quickly so you can get it done a lot faster with less frustration - I learned that while on commission as a repairman long ago. For electronic gear, just the radiated heat from a soldering iron would often do - and a point source of temperature change can often narrow down the fault helpfully.

Nice, I guessed correctly about 4 minutes in after you displayed all of the symptoms. I work in industrial maintenance / automation controls for a large factory. At the 4 minute mark I called fuel shutting off intermittently, either solenoid bad or control system fault causing solenoid to turn off. Glad you figured it out!

Sorry I haven't been watching the videos as of late, I've been"offline" due to lack of funds but I'm back for an unknown amount of time. Good stuff.

I’m glad to see you uploading

It’s always nice when it’s a cheap and easy fix!
-
in Alaska they stopped adding dye to heating oil due to the dye causing issues with several brands of oil fired heaters.
-
I’m glad you were able to fix it
