    Your heater was missing the circular disk that holds the Graphite blades- 8:41 in the video. The blades fit the side of a round disk and they fly out when the motor turns.
    They ride inside the recessed area at 8:41 and creates a vacuum. They creates a suction.

    @9:39 that is a screw to calibrate the pressure(3.8psi for a 75k; it says on the specs)...... I just finished buying a 75k version of this for a $100, the fuel lines were all cracked and so it wasn't pulling any kerosene; replaced the rubber hosing with rubber lines used for windshield wipers(seems to be the same stuff).... where did you end up buying the inner part that broke?(mine hasn't but for future reference maybe nice knowing)

    I found the part that holds the orifice should have a spring and a washer, THERE SHOULD BE AN O RING ON THE OPOSITE END OF THE ORIFICE, where I lost it I have no idea. I found an o ring in my set of Viton o rings that was close and installed it. Dead headed the air line and set at 3.8# and reattached the air line, turned it on and " it fired up".! IT DID!! Thanks for the tip from another u tube video. First place to look is a broken or missing o ring next time i get air in the fuel line!!!

    The filter was not saturated with fuel. It was graphite dust. Fuel does not go through it. Haha. The screw next to the pressure gauge is your air pressure adjustment. Its not a hi/low setting. It needs to be adjusted for the proper pressure for the air/fuel mixture. Should be set by watching the gauge. Just over 6psi.

    My issue is it'll fire and run for a few minutes, then shut off and the light flashes. It also smells to all holy hell when this happens. I've taken it apart like this video and the graphite part is perfectly fine. I made matters worse but going out tonight and kicking it in frustration and snapping the board, so I just bought a new board, but I will keep trying to figure out when it stops sometimes after the board comes in.

    I Have a 8 year old Dyna Glo 75,000 btu heater with a problem I haven't found anywhere in these responses. Mine pushes air back through the fuel line into the tank even after setting the air pump discharge to less than the recommended 3.8 pound rate. It will not pull fuel into the injector. All of which are clear and unobstructed. Limit switch , optical sensor, igniter, air pump (from 0 to 10 pound) capable set at 3.8" all works fine. After speaking to 2 Customer Service people I was told maybe it is past it's use full life. After $40 of new filters and parts. All works but it will not suck fuel from the tank, while pushing air through the injector into THE FUEL LINE TO THE TANK. 75K orifice in injector clear and spirals on nozzle clean and clear ANY IDEAS? Thanks

    Do you happend to know how many volts goes to the igniter, I get fuel spraying out front but it only lights when it feels like it or you get a e1 code and has been doing this ever since I took it out of the box, when looking up code it says sensor may need to be cleaned and it wasnt even dirty.

      Sounds like you have an air pressure problem. What does the gage on the back read? If it reads more than 6psi it needs to be adjusted. These heaters are nearly 100% efficient but can kill you if not adjusted right.

I checked the fuse and its good. I also checked the 2 pins that the ignition module plugs into but when i turn it on it is only showing 56 to 58 volts. I don't think its the board as it is working fine other wise but I'm not sure. I fire it up by using a propane torch and it runs fine its just not igniting. Any advice would be appreciated.
