Hello -

I have an old american standard hot water natural gas boiler and it just stopped firing up. Pilot lights are on - Bosco switch is open/on. Transformers are all showing 25-27v. Only thing I can think of not working is the Old Detroit Lubricator Company Gas valve not working - any way to test or clean it or can a new-old stock from 1950 somewhere?

Attached a few pics - Hopefully someone has an idea.

I have an idea. Hire a local pro who knows what they’re doing so you don’t kill someone.

Clearly it's run out of lubricant.

Double AA? Is that equivalent to a single B cell?

Since you're canadian dont you guys use Double EH cells?

Chromosomes are too tight, better with the double helix configuration.

I show these threads, or at least the responses, to my wife. She didn’t get it until I said “Double EH” out loud. Lol!

You want to watch a good Michigan movie, with the accents? We always watch it the night before opening day of firearm season.
