set your aquastat to 180 and your draft door should shut at 180. your only going to get that temp if the draft door is open. i dont think your getting your refractory up to operating temps which kills your efficiency . let it run and get to temp then worry about what your draft is. your not going to get accurate draft readings if the boiler never comes to temp.
