The normal f0 263. Is displayed after a burner lock out. This has been the normal thing when I switch it off at the wall after a burnout lock.

I went to the normal as it had been sitting for 8 months with no real oil in the tank and crud on the bottom, I bled it on the oil burner and out came some green goop pretty rubbery, this is post service as the gentlemen that serviced it had it running, but I warned it had been sitting for a long while.

Now it goes to start up initiates the green light then stops after about 2-10 seconds. Displays the 9f 855 error which normally points to air or crud in the system.

I've checked the lines, the water pressure, the light sensor which is clean, I've check the electrodes and looked at the nozzle but nothings coming up like obvious. I'm not an engineer as you can tell. Just learning as we go with a mechanical background.

I've got it perfectly clean, the engineers claiming it worked so unlikely to be a fault he's caused, but my question is, has the new nozzle likely to have clogged so quickly within a 2 week period with the system only being asked to do trickle heating? There was a fair bit of rust and what can only be described as muddy slime that came out before it went clear. When on I couldn't get real air, and pressure appeared to be fine when bleeding like it would spray you in the face at the right turn of the bleeder valve when initiating burn.

Any help would be appreciated.
