About to replace my 3/8 copper oil furnace supply line. My 3 year old Carrier forced hot air furnace with a Beckett NX burner has been locking out due to bad ignition. I think air is getting into the fuel line. If it idles more than a few hours the Genisys controller goes into lockout due to a loss of flame when firing. I have done some tests where if I bleed the line it fires right up. So I know air is getting into the line.
My plan is to replace the 3/8 copper supply line and install a Tiger Loop Ultra oil de-aerator with spin on 10 micron filter. I am going to still use the General 1A25A felt filter off the tank to supply the Tiger Loop as a pre-filter.
The supply house tried to sell me coated 3/8 line but I went with the non-coated as my research shows that coated is only necessary when burying the line in concrete. My 275 gallon tank is in my basement about 10 feet from my furnace. Is it ok to use non-coated line in my setup? The coated line only comes in 50ft sections and is quite expensive.
