You’re right, I’ve a good selection of tools but I’m missing the exhaust gas analyser. I’ve found a local guy on fb that does oil boilers so I’ll give him a ring on Monday.
I appreciate you're a hands on type of person and I know it's frustrating when your primary energy source fails and you struggle to find someone but as the old saying goes "a little knowledge is dangerous knowledge".
There wasn’t the clicking sound of the spark. I’ve checked the electrode position and it’s ok. Plus the leads are securely pushed in/on and tight.
By the sounds of it then you may have more than one problem. If it's genuinely not sparking and I would confirm this by running a specific test (which I won't explain what) then you could have a control box, box mounting plate or a dodgy transformer. You could also have a breakdown in electrode insulation and it's arching across the blast tube. You really need someone to start at the tank and work their way in.
