It was very kind and human of you to take the time to explain everything to this person. It’s what separates Americans like you from everyone else. Bravo Sir!

Crude oil is heated up to approximately 700-900 degrees then the hot crude oil is fed into the cracking tower which is a tower several feet in diameter that in itself is 160-200 plus feet in height. The heated crude oil is fed from the top of the cracking tower and has several " shelves/racks " where the various grades of fuel cool down enough to condense on each shelve and have pipes to take the condensed fuel off the rack condensing shelf/rack to storage tanks. Now the lightest fuels condense at the top of the cracking tower with stuff like naphtha coming off the top of the tower, gasoline in various grades come off the middle of the cracking tower and below the gasoline rack below that comes diesel fuel then heating fuel in grades from number 1 then number 2 then at the very bottom of the cracking tower you get 6 oil normally called in the old days bunker C which is the remains of what's left over from the distilling process. Bunker C is what large industrial plants burn for fuel for power generation and heating systems. A lot of heavy industrial heating plants have switched from bunker C #6 fuel are now burning number 5 fuel which is number 6 bunker C thinned out by mixing it with number 2 fuel primarily to reduce emissions. Steven , One of these days I'll provide you with a link to a graphic webpage that uses diagrams to show the refining process in greater detail. Hope this help a little as it just a basic description of the refinery process.

she seemed like a nice customer.. and was good that you took the time to go through it with her so she understands how it works and what your doing.. good work steve.. hope you and your family have a great christmas.. brendan UK plumber

[@DAS-Videos]

The professional terminology for a bad transformer is 'wimpy'. Yes I have a dry sense of humor :-)

[@jonbarfield4915]

You are so lucky. You do what you love and you get to take your pup with you. Heaven on earth my friend.

[@myfastcars]

Excellent job Steve! I like her need for knowledge on how her system works. I know it can be trying when you are trying to troubleshoot/fix the system but she was NICE and have a very good atitude and quest for knowing what was wrong. Thnks for the videos

[@cindytepper8878]

When I was a kid our heat went out late one night in the middle of a storm and my grandfather came over and hooked up a neon sign transformer to the electrodes with automotive spark plug wires. It worked like that for a couple days until the storm was over and he came over with a new transformer.

[@deanguando1335]

Your grandfather was a pretty smart man.

[@CL-ty6wp]

I just throw lit paper in through the window and flip it on. Works fine.

[@petecoffman9048]

Your pooch is so cute. She loves her daddy

[@bobgallo2178]

Thanks for posting, I made the mistake of being directly in front of a burner after the customer said that he hit the reset 1 time. Blew back into my face, later he admitted to 5 times.

[@bradstevenson1750]

gotta love those people, you know they hit it more than once when it smokes off for a while

[@kellyr95]

I think it's a good idea for technicians to tell customers, like Steve did, why you don't want to push the reset a bunch of times without intervening startup.

[@stephenacman3244]

I always assume they have pushed reset double whatever they told me

[@ryanravencaller]

Lol my dad did this shit to me after it ran out of oil, When I bled the oil line of all the air and shut the bleeder, it blew back so hard and I had the fire view door propped open, not a fun time, i shut it right off, I didn’t know if it was gonna explode or what but a few seconds after I shut the view door it extinguished.

[@deppurple700]

this women was right about everything she was saying and she hit the nail on the head in the begining when she said it was running to rich and he checked just about everything on the burner that has to do with the air or the flame onothervwords to rich or to lean doesn't matter she knew 8tvwssnt running right smart women!!!

[@floydindursky2973]

Good Video! I think she wanted something else Tuned up as well! Alot of Questions!

[@dburto13]

Great job Steve! Baby sure loves you, that was a nice ending 👍😃

[@blackmanops3749]

You reset the electrodes and removed the air flow restrictor but didn't adjust the air bands with your instrumentation. Why not? seems to me the balance would be significantly different than before.

[@bradstevenson1750]

its funny you ran into a leaking coil gasket when its cold... just ran into that same situation today. after i got the burner running for a few minutes the coil gasket quit leaking. good stuff steve have a great holiday

[@leemcguinness6830]

Sure it looks like it stopped but it hasn't , that water is evaporating on the hot steel and it will eat away at the steel where the leak was

[@boggy7665]

The diff betwn oil and gasoline regarding flammability is, gasoline is made of lighter molecules that gasify more rapidly. It readily forms flammable and explosive fuel-air mixtures at room temperature. Fuel oil does not become gaseous at room temperature, at least not enough to form flammable or explosive mixtures. Different 'flash point', to use the term of art. Fuel oil needs these specialized burners to catch fire. The nozzles spray it out, and turbulent air mixes it. Tiny droplets of oil mixed with air will catch fire and burn.

[@proseincproseinc9815]

love watching you fix the burners learned alot if i buy a house in north now we have heat pumps but never gets below 30 here mabe 7 days a year but house im looking at gets -40

[@danielguy2156]

Those Indians!... I love this guy! Is he saying spark or spock?... seriously, so down to earth and refreshing, this is great content. Keep up the good work.

[@ackmino]

Thank god we are going into gas production season.

[@patstansberry8189]

Steve the oil burner master fixes a other one. Goodb job

[@twiz8789]

Customers hit that reset so many times ya gotta burn the oil out. Im one of very few oil burner techs in my area...doing it for 32 years. Pesky old bird yackin on your shoulder the whole time...gotta love it. Great vid...subbed

[@williamdyckman9704]

Steve, good diagnosis on that unit, you are a good teacher. Thanks!

[@paulg444]

Steve operates from the stratosphere!

[@humblegeorge]

Thank you very much for bringing me along on this service call.Not only did I learn a lot but I very much enjoyed you accent :>) I live near Syracuse NY But have a Friend in Boston and not knowing your location,found the whole video excellant .Thank you again from an old Mixer driver Merry Christmas :>)

[@leemcguinness6830]

After 42 years in the business that was water in the filter element second the door on the base of the chimney was open reducing the draft needed to get good performance, this will cool down the chimney causing draft problems.

[@Yodumeee]

Yeah probably from this crap biodiesel especially when it's real cold. Sludge

[@freddy915]

Yeah I think she might had a crush on him asking a lot of questions LOL

[@ingergriggs4626]

Still love the dog hahaha

[@MrJujubean]

I think she wanted your spark!!!!

[@michaelambler2982]

The system was "sick"...Doctor Steve !

[@catbirdfeeder]

Sweet lady...ya did her good.

[@MookieMan1]

What video did you get to watch?

[@ИгорьМихеенко-я4э]

Steven, in America, what do all boilers run on diesel? Are there gas-fired boilers?

[@holysirsalad]

Yes natural gas and propane are very popular choices, as well as smaller units for domestic hot water

[@TheyForcedMyHandLE]

Just wondering why that other stuff wouldn't be checked in the first place? It only looks like it takes a couple additional minutes, if that?

[@bradford216]

That was one nasty filter ! Good job, got her some heat again.

[@deppurple700]

onother thing I think this guy is saying " Spaaack to loud and funny to be his normal way of saying that please God !!!

[@aircooledtx]

Good fix, Steve Lav.

[@Fireship1]

Nice job Steve! 👍

[@r.joseph8911]

doggie is so precious!

[@DAS-Videos]

Can that leak be fixed, or will the boiler need to be replaced? That leak would keep me up at night.

[@bradstevenson1750]

probably the tankless coil gasket. a new gasket should take care of it

[@deanguando1335]

Good customer.

[@hofnerbass]

You have more patience then me.

[@tomkristman1456]

Steve invented the impact driver

[@vaccumme]

Steve. A fine mist of oil will burn. That is how that furnace works.

[@notajp]

Yes, the fuel must be atomized under high pressure. That’s what happens at the nozzle when the fuel is spraying out. The pump is spraying that fuel at between 100-140 psi. When it comes out of that nozzle it’s in an extremely fine spray. If that nozzle is dirty or worn, you won’t get that fine spray and will get a poor burn. Works the same as a fuel injector in a gasoline or Diesel engine.

[@jonathanfurtado3696]

@@notajp You are correct on how the injector work. all three of those things run differently. there is a big difference between how my gasoline and diesel engines run. unless it's a direct inject gasoline engine.

[@vincentstellato5783]

Hello from Fairhaven.

[@ravit6223]

nice job mama

[@ronsbeerreviewstools4361]

Great informative video

[@jason-ge5nr]

oh mamma we got a bird dogger. on point watchin every move

[@rathbunracing1]

I have a tankless oil boiler. I my temps are at 180 high 160 low with 10 on diff. Is that good or too high? It's also a one floor ranch built in 1952, baseboard heating. It runs for a half and hour and I use 1 inch of oil a day..Is this normal?

[@GodSmacker06]

[@michael-dm2bv]

u need a espar d4 or one of the cheap clones installed in ur van. keep ur baby warm without the need to keep the van running.

[@jeffreykreft5442]

Hey Steve, what are the transformers you stock on your truck?

[@johnc4876]

Steve, are you using a GoPro? Headmount? and what camera model ?

[@nelsonmerlin2446]

how do you jump the wires?

[@jimburnette3319]

I wish you were my dad.. my furnace is giving me trouble... is there any way to drain the fuel oil that builds up inside after restarting it 2 or 3 times? Mine starts right up.. runs and then kicks off after 10 or 20 seconds the first time I started it up this yr it ran for almost 5 minutes then shut off..

[@adamcraig1568]

Sounds like a cad cell sensor acting up👀

[@Palmerdsm]

lol gasoline used to be disposed of because they didnt find it useful. gas was a by-product of fuel oil that they would just throw out.

[@petermasterson8276]

OK,but don't call me LOL.

[@Hubjeep]

2:00 Is that a John Deere part on your dash?

[@DAS-Videos]

Puppy has more cloths than I have.

[@zachz96]

Why don't the transformers stop sparking once the oil is ignited?

[@tedmartin5599]

Zach Z three wire primary. The transformer and motor are wire nutted together so as long as the motor is running the transformer will be working.

[@zachz96]

Doesn't that use unnecessary power and wear out the electrodes?

[@tedmartin5599]

Zach Z it does and primarys like the Beckett Genisys allow you to send power to the burner and transformer separately.

[@notajp]

The newer style primaries DO shut off the spark once the flame is established. They are mostly designed to be used with the newer style solid state transformers, tho they work fine with the older ones too.You don’t want to run the solid state ones continuous spark. They won’t hold up the way the older style did. My old Williamson low boy out in the shop is running a newer “intermittent” spark primary with the solid state transformer. Works quite well.

[@commonsense3673]

Chocolate shake Steve

I hate when women think they can get a free ride with hard labor ! Have actually had women come right out and ask ! I'm sure Steve has ran into the same thing

[@MinusTheSparkPlugs]

Im pretty sure that fuel oil for your furnace or water heater is just cherry red off road diesel isn't it?

[@erikj.2066]

More or less

[@jamesshanks2614]

Several years ago the Federal government decreed that off road diesel is the same as highway diesel fuel the only difference between the two is off road diesel is red. Highway diesel fuel is green. That and off road diesel doesn't have any highway taxes on it per gallon. True off road diesel fuel as us old timers knew it no longer exists.

[@MinusTheSparkPlugs]

James Shanks that doesn't answer my question that's just you talking about what you wanted to talk about

[@jamesshanks2614]

Actually it answers the question if you read and understand it. When the federal government changed the specifications of off road diesel fuel essentially it's the same fuel you use on the highway just a different color, several years ago the government specified the same ultr-low sulphur diesel fuel for on or off high way use just a different color red for off road and green for highway use.

[@holysirsalad]

@@MinusTheSparkPlugs What he's getting at is the US EPA's transition to Ultra-Low Sulphur Diesel. The sulphur content of on-highway diesel used to be regulated at a maximum of 5000 ppm. I don't believe other fuels had similar restriction. In 1993 the EPA introduced Low Sulphur Diesel capping on-road fuel at 500 ppm. That lasted until 2006 when the EPA started phasing in Ultra-Low Sulphur Diesel. That came in various stages and eventually applied to all #2 Fuel Oil, including all diesel fuels and heating oil. Off-road fuel was allowed to be high-sulphur (unregulated) until 2006 when it had to comply with LSD standards, and then fell under ULSD in 2010. In Massachusetts, home heating oil had to comply with LSD standards in 2014. Since this video was made MA heating oil has had to be max 15 ppm sulphur from 2018 onwards. When the sulphur standards overlap you'll find that the resulting product is usually the same. So right now, on-highway and off-highway diesel fuel are actually the same stuff, just one is dyed red to indicate that no road taxes were paid on it (I've never seen green fuel before). Generally speaking off-highway diesel and heating oil are the same refinery product, but the stuff intended for use as diesel fuel may have some additives such as detergent or cetane boosters. There's nothing preventing you from running home heating oil in an engine, though a bottle of PowerService might be a good idea. These burners just care about viscosity though. You can make them run Crisco or waste oil if you wanted to, just heat it up to thin it out... (though you might need to adjust nozzle angle and air as they burn more slowly)

[@jimmylee377]

[@frankdinaro3220]

Is a transformer like a battery...lmao :) ....can't work with people over me

[@jchambers2586]

the fuel looks like off road diesel

[@bradstevenson1750]

heating oil and off road are the same only differance is the tax you pay

[@Yodumeee]

It's actually not the same. #2 heating oil use to be used in off road equipment no problem. With the newer engines you'll void your warranty and ruin your new cat engine on your excavator if you fuel it with heating oil and not off road diesel. They're close and both red dye but not the same
