1.unscrew the flexible hose on the end of your copper supply pipe from the boiler burner
2. ensure that your oil tank isolation wale is fully open.
3. ensure that any secondary shut off valves if fitted are open on the oil supply line.
4. check that your tremote fire vale is open or has not failed and close as this will stop the oil supply alongg the oil line.
after removing he flexible ose from the burner place it in a bucket and drain 3/4 bucket of oil into the bucket
