I'm just curious on this one as I think that I have the answer already but I'd like to be certain.
A customer of mine with an old Trianco Eurostar 125 (External) has had a fault develop in that the boiler won't start first thing in the morning. It always goes to lockout, but when he restarts it, it will run without any problem at all.
I went over a couple of weeks ago and diagnosed a pump problem as the pressure was flicking up and down all the time the boiler was running but haven't been able to get back to replace the pump (I usually keep them on the van but I'd just replaced one prior to getting to his place so needed to re-stock). Whilst I was there I did notice that there were a lot of small air bubbles in the tiger loop and, although I know its an air separation unit, it did concern me as I haven't noticed them before when I've been over to service it.
Sooooo ..... my query is - as its still working, after the initial lock out and restart, and running ok every day, could it be anything else that I might have overlooked?
I was going to post a video of the pump pressure gauge but I keep getting an error message so the explanation will have to do
