Morning all, off with the Mrs to grocery shop. Grrrr
Water heaterman called and gave me some advice about that gas valve and how to clean the bottom of the
tank as i forgot to use the dust thing and clean the porcelain well not porcelain i forgt what he called that filter that has micro size hole in it for airflow as its a closed chamber and once a little dust or lint etc get in it just a little the pilot will not hold.
He said after that if it still dont work call him and he will charge me dearly for the service call and parts needed. lol
He is an older fella and i trust him as he showed me in past how to install the burner assembly when the warranty was up.
Anyways i did all he said got down once again and fiddled with it and its working well as the pilot has yet to go out after dishwasher ran and it
tank reheated and showers etc.
So far its working well and hope i dont have to call him .
Put most of fig trees in yard for season except the 30 gallon containers which there are about 7 cause there to heavy for me to move with the recent rains but in a day or 3 i will move them in yard.
Gummy wish you luck in your quest.
TT always nice to read your uplifting posts !!!
LD i rewicked once same tight airflow being restricted, im going to take apart once again and look carefully at the 1 hole that is on the airtube as i think that should line up with the 2 holes in the cap so when one draws thru the mouthpiece the airflow is not restricted . I will when put back together find out by trying to line them up with a needle .
That is unless somehow that "airtube's airhole" was drilled to high or too low or to small which would restrict.
If there ok i will use a vision stone # 2 coil and have some innards from the latest 3rd version as well , i try the vision stone 2s coil as its been seasoned to test instead of the smaller ce2 coil which was i tried in the nova tank.
