Remember the old policy Steve, if you fix the problem, it's charged at your regular rate. If the customer helps, it's double your regular rate! Great video Steve!
It was probably the nozzle or that head being loose. Your right about the nozzles. You do get a bad one or temperamental one. Specially with a burner running kerosene. Never cared much for Carlin or Riello burners. They try to be so different. You can go anywhere and get Beckett parts.
Where did you find Entermanns cookie dough, I grew up down the block from Bay Shore, NY bakery/factory ❤, thank you for taking us along God Bless and Stay Safe 🙏👍🇺🇸
Love your videos Steve. Very informative. No one wants to train you properly when your on a job. Most guys just want to get in and out as quickly as possible and training takes time and patience which makes your channel, and a few other guys, an excellent resource where a guy can take it all in at their own speed.
I thought it was the nozzle to begin with. Bad nozzle or it was too big. Can’t trust it when the customer states he changed something. That’s the first thing I’d redo.
Nozzle are one of the most common problems and extremely sensitive, if it was handled by someone that does not know that it definitely could have become compromised.
On some older concentric vent terminals, there are joints inside that are sealed with silicone. If the silicone deteriorates over time, you can have flue gasses mixed in the combustion air. Some terminals had resistance right at the exit to create back pressure to force the exhaust away from the house which will force the exhaust into the intake through the leak. This causes the flame to become unstable just like what happened to you when you added air. It will run ok for a minute or so until the exhaust gets to the leak and down the intake. I had this happen on a 90's era Trianco. Had to replace the vent terminal with a Field which I don't think they make anymore. Most DV units that I see now come with Z-Flex DVO terminal. If you get called back, look for soot/smoke in the air intake or blower wheel and let it run with the vrv closed and see if it becomes unstable after a minute or two. You can't just route clean air from somewhere else because the combustion air coming in is what gives the terminal zero clearance to combustibles.
Awesome video Steve! Like the long ones! Thought you were stumped 0n this one. What is the name of that test tool you use to see if the delayed oil valve was functioning properly?
Last year I see you were using hoseless or Wireless gauges in the summertime I know it's a little early but I'm just curious what you used and how you like them
Iif that front door is not sealing properly you will have that problem with buderus make sure you tighten hinge side first .the baffles could have not letting it close all the way
Welcome to my world of troubleshooting. I'm always called when others can't figure it out. But they don't tell me that so each time I run into the crazy s**t then later hear that nobody else could figure it out. Never assume even a new part is good. Especially not these days when the part prices are astronomical and the quality is crap. I work on very different gear but the same troubleshooting principles apply.
Guess it could’ve been a defective new nozzle, but did anyone check the oil quality when it started dying out? Maybe he got some bad fuel with crap floating around in it and you finally purged it out by the end.
Mostly the customer doesn't tell half the story, he could have opened up the nozzle to clean or inspect and compromised it. I would start with a clean setup new nozzle, electrodes and difusor 😎. By the way there is liquid you can spray inside the furnace it will clean the sooth in no time 💥💥
I guarantee after you left the gasket and the extra screws were put back on along with the baffles put back in. If the homeowner wasn’t there you would have been out of there in 30 minutes with just an annual service.
Had repaired an oil burner.. left the place and within an hour, the burner had failed. A mouse had gone in the burner air inlet and seized the burner fan. The woman claimed I had not done my job properly. Her frigging house in the country.!!
You have a draft issue which is very common for Carlin,did used oil heaters for a long time. Blackgold, Cleanburn and Energylogic .Carlin has a very sophisticated draft system for their catalytic clean exhaust. You need to put a proper venting system because your riser is an issue.
Its the OIL its bio -slime its NOT the same he already changed the nozzle and it still did it been to a bunch of calls like this it's not the once-over its the 10 times over
Would have ruined his analyzer. It’s not good for that soot to get inside the wand. You need to do a smoke test first or at least get it burning cleaner. He knows what he’s doing so there’s a reason for it
Then this guy is gonna want an additional discount already on top of your discount price because he thinks he helped you, thanks for the help, but I’m here you’re paying me just let me do it
That customer was a Super Helicopter type. No offense of people doing it themselves, but if you hire a pro let the pro work. No worries if you check in on the pro, but no helicopter customer

Id rather have the customer help me it creates a teaching moment

Great training clinic. One of your best videos Steve.
Steve to the rescue!
@@WeatherNut27Once again
Hey Steve one of your best videos been following your for a awhile. Nice to see a more challenging fix from you ..
Hey Steve and Miss Molly! Workin’ again ya’ll. 👍👍. it never hurts to know a little about the equipment in your home.
Where did you find Entermanns cookie dough, I grew up down the block from Bay Shore, NY bakery/factory ❤, thank you for taking us along God Bless and Stay Safe 🙏👍🇺🇸
Whoa! What a challenging one! Never seen that happen. Nice to have a little help.
So who here has met Steve in person? He is practically a celebrity.

She was choochin' mama!!
I thought it was the nozzle to begin with.
Bad nozzle or it was too big.
Can’t trust it when the customer states he changed something.
That’s the first thing I’d redo.
So was it the coupling or the nozzle in the end. Hard to tell . The customer replaced the nozzle earlier and the problem remained.

A teaching moment for sure.
Steve : " These nozzles are mass produced you know ". 😅😅
I'll have to remember that one !
you are very smart Steve!!
Perfect 👌
I know I wouldn't be happy till the baffles were back in and running smooth.
Did they use a chimney liner
I think this guy set Steve up he really like him 😮
I have the same burner and I had to pull out 4 baffles in the chamber
Awesome video Steve! Like the long ones! Thought you were stumped 0n this one. What is the name of that test tool you use to see if the delayed oil valve was functioning properly?
Good job Steve.
i also have had a bad new nozzle.
First time I am seeing that inline pump pressure device.
Buderus with a Carlin. Usually a reillo comes with it. They don't like high daft
Last year I see you were using hoseless or Wireless gauges in the summertime I know it's a little early but I'm just curious what you used and how you like them

Hello Steve!
Welcome to my world of troubleshooting. I'm always called when others can't figure it out. But they don't tell me that so each time I run into the crazy s**t then later hear that nobody else could figure it out. Never assume even a new part is good. Especially not these days when the part prices are astronomical and the quality is crap. I work on very different gear but the same troubleshooting principles apply.
I've installed a couple gas furnaces on my own, but these oil burning boilers, not a clue.
Steven, that boiler is like a bad relationship. Everything is going good and all of the sudden bamm. lol
True...a woman will just suddenly pull the plug on ya!
Nice that you work with homeowner , why is there a smaller pipe in the exhaust , like a choke ! & not a fan of “ flex pipes!
Good video, Steve. Ended up being right back to basics even though I thought it may have been the transformer. Also a Joe Homeowner 😂
I’m here to see the dog
Was this your longest video ever???
Should've told him to pipe the exhaust like the supply air. Holy shit momma!
Guess it could’ve been a defective new nozzle, but did anyone check the oil quality when it started dying out? Maybe he got some bad fuel with crap floating around in it and you finally purged it out by the end.
I woulda changed the nozzle first.
Mostly the customer doesn't tell half the story, he could have opened up the nozzle to clean or inspect and compromised it. I would start with a clean setup new nozzle, electrodes and difusor 😎. By the way there is liquid you can spray inside the furnace it will clean the sooth in no time 💥💥

If the homeowner wasn’t there you would have been out of there in 30 minutes with just an annual service.
He might have Birds or Bats in the Belfry.
I think change the nozzle.
It says that this video was 4 days ago. I think I have already watched it.
Tuff one but you got the blue beast from the northeast running again!!!!!
This one reminds me of Johnnie Carson and Ed Mc Mahon.
Howdy Steve and Molly
Flippin' helicopter type...
True, but if you’re going have a 🚁, that’s the kind to have!
Joe Homeowner! Ain't no Taj Majal !
It’s deff something with that nozzle. Not atomizing right. Watching it change flame as you did nothing to it deff indicates it’s the nozzle
Had repaired an oil burner.. left the place and within an hour, the burner had failed. A mouse had gone in the burner air inlet and seized the burner fan. The woman claimed I had not done my job properly. Her frigging house in the country.!!
Hello family
steven miss molly is cute how old is she
Sir Steve can I join😊😊😊 HVAC life
She's a crusty one and a fighter Mr Grinch. LoL LoL 😊
She’s an enigma, Momma!! Brain teaser of your career.
surprised you never told him to "Do One" Steve!!
It was running good.with the guage on it maybe the smallnline is fucky
Actually that's me I can watch a RUclips video and get the problem resolved
joe homeowne "NOT "
hey Steve you didn't have youtube you had to learn the hard way.
More cooking videos, pplleeaassee!!!
You have a draft issue which is very common for Carlin,did used oil heaters for a long time. Blackgold,
Cleanburn and Energylogic .Carlin has a very sophisticated draft system for their catalytic clean exhaust. You need to put a proper venting system because your riser is an issue.
Body bumps for Mr Nozzle Mrs Molly body bumps for mr nozzle
Its the OIL its bio -slime its NOT the same he already changed the nozzle and it still did it been to a bunch of calls like this it's not the once-over its the 10 times over
set that pressure to 160 with .75 60 w nozzle delavan air to .75 .....GET THE COMBUSTION ANALYZER OUT
buderus direct vent very finicky
g115ws4 / carlin spec
Would have ruined his analyzer. It’s not good for that soot to get inside the wand. You need to do a smoke test first or at least get it burning cleaner. He knows what he’s doing so there’s a reason for it
BS .... they have filters and that was no where near sooty enough. besides you fix it then you analyze it. period....@@acrservicesmathewr7565
Nothing worse than a defective new part w/anything.
You end up checking everything else.
maybe it is quality chinesium nozzles nowadays every part is suspect.
Then this guy is gonna want an additional discount already on top of your discount price because he thinks he helped you, thanks for the help, but I’m here you’re paying me just let me do it
he gave me a 20 dollar tip .. over the price i charged him
@@stevenlavimonierethat says it all to me. Respect! Nicely done as usual.
Why would you try and save a few bucks fu*king around when you have the best boiler guy in the Northeast available to you.
That customer was a Super Helicopter type.
No offense of people doing it themselves, but if you hire a pro let the pro work.
No worries if you check in on the pro, but no helicopter customer
god i hated this customer with a passion
He changed too much stuff for Steve to be able to trouble shoot.
RUclips Friggin technician ain’t doing repairs for a living.
Wow that was a sum bitch of a job.
DISCLAIMER: Don't DIY, let the experts do the work. Leave it to the professionals.
Dr Seuss bs with that exhaust pipe
homeowners attitude was raunchy af 🤢
New doesn’t mean it’s good.
New? Really = never ever worked!
Hmm stumper....
