oil furnace with problems fixed

[@joemc111]

35 years ago I had to work on my Father in laws oil furnace,Wish I had youtube, nice job man.

[@jeanmcallister961]

Response to prior comment. I’m a female licensed electrician now existing in Asheville North Carolina. I can’t get any field experience from the hvac men here at all, so I have to teach myself. I have learned a lot from Steve’s videos, especially the tolls he uses. The burner in the tin can I live in doesn’t have the room to take off the motor this one does in the video. Fortunately I had bought some shirt ratchet wrenches from Harbor Freight a few years back and the 1/2 “ worked perfectly in that right position by the fire wall. Good I for on using the channel locks in the nit driver. Subtle stuff like that is what I learn fro and his method , like any accomplished tradesman , is music to my eyes. So back off on the you tube videos. You watched this one..

[@jayyoung5423]

Joe homeowner watched some KZbin videos and is a pro now....happens all the time.

[@benjaminwhite2747]

I renovated my entire house watching KZbin videos. Everything looks great....at night with the lights dem

[@heatherj.1495]

My furnace looks exactly like that n i have to hit the red button when ready kick on but now it's not basically kicking right back off any idea or suggestions

[@earthling94]

When Steve goes to a call back and blames it on some one else haha makes a great video 😂

[@tasiapando2972]

Mr. Lavimoniere you are the best! your videos are very detailed.

[@NinjaBruce16]

Joe and Jane homeowner are watching your videos to fix things themselves.

[@edwardburnsburns5307]

I own Burns Heating and air , I love your show keep sending those videos

[@kdmq]

Mama's boy in the basement decided he wanted to fix the furnace one day.

[@dosgos]

Does that big fresh air intake help with the Beckett in your area? Is there a problem if the fresh air is icy cold? Is there a valve that shuts down the intake when the fan is not operating?

[@WeatherNut27]

Great video. Enjoyed this one. I'd love to hear you talk about the air band more and show the fire if you can while you adjust it. Thanks for the upload Steve. Cold and Blizzard in the plains this week!

[@Mao2187]

Steve, can you do a video of you restocking the consumables on your truck. I want to see what you run out of during this time of year.

[@hansi6606]

my dialy dose of plumbing thanks to Mister Lavimoniere

[@AmericanFarmerHVAC2024]

"Wipe all the oil outta the fuckin flippin thing" LOL never heard that before, I'll have to add that to my vocabulary.

[@Spector_NS5_RD]

5:12 "Let me get in there and wipe all of the oil out of the fuc.........flipping thing." LOL I love ya Steve. I wonder what that evap drain pan looks like after the high limit was set to 250F. I know most come with high temp but....yikes.

[@J-Colt]

Looks like some unprotected wires coming through power venter outside. Thanks for video Steven!

[@mannieecker8602]

These Types of jobs are what I refer to as "crime scene cleanup" deals......you come along after the crime has been committed and get the pleasure of trying to fix everything straight again!

[@galdinobruno19]

U work on pressure washer burner too?

[@hazze25038]

My blower motor fan wont turn on do you know what can cause this?

[@jeanclaudevandam4974]

Don't you record these videos so a homeowner can attempt some simple repairs themselves. Easy on the homeowners man. Lol.

[@55098]

Nice work next level next level

[@williegillie5712]

Used to love the smell of kerosene I Get sick around it now days

[@Jarrettsville_Garage]

If the fan is blowing a decent amount of the time without hot air. I’m guessing first things to check/do is change oil nozzle, oil filter, clean igniter anodes etc. anything else someone would recommend?

[@waltradcliffe4482]

I wouldn’t put a tag on it either if I did work like that!

[@edwardburnsburns5307]

If I had a penny for each time a homeowner touched the burner I would be rich , go get em steve

[@donnierobertson3088]

Nice job again like always

[@RedArwBus]

Happy homeowner repairs 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@kylebass4635]

What happens when Steve doesn't do the burner service. Good Lord that is a beast of a power venter. Has the damper pulled open and still pulling a huge draft.

[@AMStationEngineer]

1. Case in-point why it's a safe and wise business practice to video your work. 2. How many cubic yards of soot could this thing have belched out in a week? 3. The neatness and cleanliness of this job at completion, should be quite apparent - to even the least HVACR knowledgeable of homeowners/tenants.

[@Skyhawk1998]

Loosey goosey pressurized oil fitting right over all of the sparky electrical bits... nothing could possibly go wrong, nossir. What do you think the price of that service was? Looks like a 12 pack to me. What "plastic shroud" were you referring to in that burner assembly? Not used to oil at all. Only gas and heat pumps out here in Kansas. If that improper service had led to a fire, could you have been blamed for it because of your tag being there? Obviously there was someone else who got in there and broke things, but there's no proof of that without a tag and without the homeowner's admission.

[@andrewhicks6494]

Fortunately being an LLC, the homeowner wouldn’t be able to come after Steve personally and if and when that went to a deposition, after Steve turned over his records of not being there in 4 years it would be fairly easy to prove that someone else was there.

[@zekenzy6486]

good job. I love to watch your video ^_^

[@ohm3142]

Thank you 🙏

[@georgesiatos9848]

great work!

[@josem2468]

I'm the brother in law. Did I forget something? Nope not me.

[@aleighawagner661]

Good God, they are lucky they didn't burn their home down! Wow!!!

[@richardthompson7133]

Olsen bcl 120 takes a .75 80 A hollow not a .75 80 B solid and why did you not pull the fan to check how much oil was under the heat exchanger. And pull the burner to see if the cerefelt pot was soaked with oil could of been a bang

[@traviskalinowski56]

Control burn

[@CL-ty6wp]

bang? this is unatomized oil. No bang. Delayed ignition with atomized fuel will boom though.

[@dklucas1]

Wow a video on my birthday 10/07/69 is when i was born.

[@sethgreenberg7725]

Those damn Joe home owner's keep you in business Lol 😂 but they are a real pain in the ass . Keep the video's coming they keep me sharp

[@johnerway7255]

Okay, miss molly working again.

[@jeanclaudevandam4974]

She probably meant the power venter fan

[@altarara9858]

2 ppm co is fine??? Should be 0

[@earthling94]

2 is fine. Probably not even accurate.

[@CL-ty6wp]

Dont ever read your water test if that scares you

[@user-ps7ou9so2h]

Ya great video showing the incompetent techs that work on these i probley could have figured that one out ,i was a carpenter.where i live most guys play guessing games on what part may have failed until they get it working right ,fire up issues went from a cracked igniter too a fuel pump an now have loud noise at fire up now ??? ,an still wont run for more then 6 to 12 hours,next year i am looking for a decent well recommened place though this place has 25 5 star ratings on facebook looks can be you know. most are delivery of oil only ,i dont know what it is on my 3rd place ask as question they dont know yet there the guy who should know ,does not consider a 24x18 filter for mobile homes should be replaced by them ,not that big a deal ,this one say my oil filter raley needs to be changed running mostly #2 oil an at time a mix 12 year old thermopride system should last 30 years & i am working on just learning basic cleaning myself re fireing An other parts they mark up,sorry for the rant but is hard to find good help these days ,i took pride in my work still do, it seems we have a generation that just dont care easy way out tape it

[@williamdyckman9704]

Steve, was a real shit show. Tube being so loose and all that carbon on nozzle assembly. Good job like always !

[@Essays4College]

Why does Steve ignore my comments?????

[@stevenlavimoniere]

i see you jenny

[@Fireship1]

When they say they only hit the reset once......they likely hit it 10 times or more!

[@earthling94]

Fireship1 yeah for sure. That shits no joke... she’ll blow the fuggin doors off it

[@earthling94]

@@James_Bowie they do, after 2 tries there is a hard lockout but it's easy to figure out. And then the mayhem ensues...

[@KenKen-ui4ny]

They tell you not to press the reset more then once, because that could cause the burner gun to inject unburnt raw heating oil into the combustion chamber, which not only can make a big mess, but it can also be an explosion hazard.

[@potatolew4495]

I had someone about 25 years ago when I was an apprentice out on a no heat in January about 2:30 in the morning. I was there solo, knew my limitations checked out things had a bad transformer. I asked how many times the guy hit the reset was told 3 times over the past 4 days, when I hit the switch and that lit up I damn near shit myself, blew a fireball out the damper as well as the chimney, found out later as the nosy neighbor was watching out the window. I will never forget that.

[@bossmantrucker656]

Nice 👍 Peace

[@tiffanyreid4084]

Looks like the fan is delayed and the thermostat is broke

[@potatolew4495]

The blower fan is delayed, the plenum has to heat up before the bower kicks in. Every forced hot air system is like that no matter what fuel source.

[@karaors8970]

+1 nice video

[@50clint85]

I love this guy nozzle tube is loose dumb ass........ Lol

[@Bob.W.]

Rough looking nozzle and electrodes.

[@jeffcoolhd]

The super tech homeowner had his hands in there trying to save a buck. Peace brother and Molly

[@Robert-fs6ge]

This guy seems mad at his customer who is paying him

[@1lefty123]

God damn an ad every 3 mins

[@user-ps7ou9so2h]

well got to say with the issues i had i know why joe home owner is trying to,i would not have made that mistake,again my point is if a tech cant do any better of a job tightening up a bolt then me ,yes professionals are different then joe techs ,meeting to many of those guys who are supposed to be pros an there is no one in my state that regulates there shitty work ,is why people are watching these videos can learn to do the basics if you have soem mechanical skills you can save yourself some head aches it seems
