Changed my Battery today so decided to have a look at my ongoing non-running FBH.
For the past year I've had the problem of it starts but won't run for more than a couple of minuets.
I remember reading a while ago about forcing air into the air intake when is running so as I was at my patents today, up into the loft to dig out an old air compressor (only a small one)
Well me, using the third button my FBH started to run and with me forcing air into it continued to run for a good while, probably the best part of 45 minuets.
The exhaust was red hot, the smoke cleared and the heater was running consistantly throughout.
Problem is, I tried it a few hours later with a cool engine...... Same thing, it would start but go to cool down after around two minuets.
Any body have any ideas.?
Many thanks
Tony New D3 Owner.. every day it starts is a bonus but any bongs or beeps are heart-stopping.
