Has to run on 28sec. Gas oil will clog the secondary heat exchanger inside a month, that's why there's no settings for it in the mi's.

by gas oil I assume your talking red diesel which fm memory isnt a good idea in a condensing combi, as youll just end up with a right mess to clean up.
haha just playing catchup with croppie

a month later when i returned and had black smoke coming out of the flue i thought hmmmm....
a total pain to clean out after.

26c equates to combi in my little head, not heat only and be it a utility, boiler house external the guts are the same the covers or not just differ. All lt oil as detailed in the instructions

It's the condense that cause the problem. Because gas oil produces more carbon, regardless how clean we get it running, it combines with the condense and fills the hex with something looking like sump oil.
Believe me, you only ever want to clean it out once!

No worries, better for him to have a hissy fit now than coming up to Xmas. Plus I get the impression he'd slate you before recommending you!
