As the warmer weather hits.. I find I am idling too much at times. This seems to be creating some issues with trying to keep things clean in my boiler. When it idles alot ( which is now .. because the temp swings form 25 at night to 50 in day), I seem to be geting more fly ash in the flue pipe and I seem to be getting some smoke out of the flue. I suppose this means I have some air leaking into the Tarm?..which is keeping the fire going a little? It also creates a tiny bit of creosote seeping through the plate thing that closes the draft.. and it ends up in on the top plate of the boiler tubes. The tubes are also getting some sort of sticky residue like stuff on them. I think my seals are not great on the top door too.
