I have a boiler and we ran out of heating oil by mistake. But now the boiler wont fire up. How do I ?reprime? the boiler pump in order to get it to fire up again? Its a Becket AF-992710 oil burner.
. On the oil pump there is a small pipe plug. On some, it has a hole in it, and you can slip a small hose onto it. You break it lose or get the small wrench on it. Hit the reset and open it some, but don't take it out. If the burner goes off on reset, close the plug, then hit the reset again and open the plug. You'll have to do this till you get oil coming out of the lose plug. It might be good idea to get a new oil filter and nozzle now.
