Yn Manninagh 45 Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 It is most likley that the nozzle is blocked with crap that has been pulled through when the tank emptied, it is very fine. Turn the electric off to the boiler and undo two nuts holding the pressure unit onto the boiler. You'll see a brass nozzle on the front. With the correct size spanner take it out and give it a good blast with and airline, don't be tempted to try and poke it out with a bit of wire. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
