Mend Baxi Fine Running

got a job on a Baxi 130he?

got a job on a 130he and it's been fine for about 8 years without a problem, but client said that it gave out a dull thump after running the hot water for a short period, I've dismantled it and it's in solid condition if a little dirty!!! several things have failed however ie, the burner gauze has come adrift ( suspected that was the thumping sound!) spark electrodes have crumbled, central insulation plates have seen better days and most of the strip seals ie combustion box door seal etc have perished, all these items are on order to replace and I suspect that the lack of annual maintenance has just brought about the failure but, do I need to look further???

obviously it does in your case Guy!! but thanks for your limited assistance, always nice to chat with someone with even the smallest ammount of information, the owner is happy with the baxi so exchange is out and a thorough check on my part has flagged up no other faults, however you guys seem to think that the 130HE was a dog! therefore I was just wondering if I was missing anything obvious?

Shame you can't exchange it on the scrapage scheme.Suggest you concentrate on progress chasing the vital parts you have identified as possible faulty, instead of wasting space and time on this self help site.Does"Gas Safe" qualification extend to extracting the urine these days?
