    As a DIY I am careful when I touch items such as this . On my Riello , I found 2 different nozzles were used by past service companies . I called Riello and was told BOTH were undersized , based on boiler GPH . I put in what Riello recommended . I have also seen " pros " on video adjust the electrodes " by eye " and use odd size wrenches , and even pliers , on the oil line and bleeder . Which is unbelievable that they don't have the metric sizes if doing this daily . Or even a small adjustable wrench . Great video . Always be aware WHO you are watching and WHERE the information comes from . It may " work or be fine " , but what are these manuals and specifications for ?

    Thank you for this video. One thing I did not see mentioned is the distance from the top of the electrodes to the top of the nozzle . I see a 4mm gap between the electrodes and a 5mm distance to the center of the nozzle. What is the height over the nozzle?

    You can also use a 3/16 Allen wrench put it thru slot on ceramics to retention head to center and set gap

    I can’t loosen the screw to slide the porcelean block for making the necessary adjustment. It appears as though it’s rusted in place and I’m afraid of breaking it. Do you have any suggestions?

    There are notches in the electrodes, do they have to be lined up with springs

    Hi thanks for the video. I’m getting oil into the electrical I believe the oil is coming down the electrodes into the electronics. Do have any idea what my problem is?

    Great video! I think this is what I need to correct on my Riello 5.
    Its recently been taking 4 to 7 starts before running.
    I've checked the photocell and its fully functional. Fuel is present, as there is a fog
    of atomized fuel in the burn chamber.
    What would be the most likely culprit for causing the elongated no-ignition?
    Adjustment of the electrodes?

      Hello. Did you ever figure out the cause/resolution? I am also getting a delayed ignition with 4-7 tries before ignition occurs.

      @@easy_two I managed to get it down to one misfire per ignition. I suspect it is to do with the photo cell feedback loop in the power module. I had touched up all solder connections on the module circuit board. Polished the connections of the photocell.
      I suspect the photocell is the culprit.

      Cleaning and adjusting the electrodes resolved this for me. There was significant black soot buildup on the ends which I scraped off with a flathead screwdriver.

    If the ceramic part in electrodes where broken could this be a problem for burner to start?

    • @mmack3286
      @mmack3286 5 років тому

      Thank for fast response. If the ceramic become brittle and small part had broken off while servicing it could this be a problem for the burner to start? As I'm having problems on the riello g5x model it's firing up ok then it's going off but fan still running but it doesn't go to lock out keeps trying to start up gets to 8 bar oil pressure then goes out??

    • @mmack3286
      @mmack3286 5 років тому

      I've done that plus the electrodes are sparking but won't know until I get a new photo cell tomorrow to see if it this.
