  1. Thanks Ex Brummie. I started out by disconnecting the joint in the fuel line upstream of the heater control, flame failure valve and remote fire valve, which were all connected directly to each other in one line. Fuel came out of the pipe but no fuel came out of the exit from the heater control. I was unable to ascertain where the blockage was. I have now removed the heater control, flame failure valve and remote valve and disconnected them from each other. There was a tremendous amount of debris in all the units so I suspect that the installation has been unused for many years. I have now thoroughly cleaned all components and there appears to be a clear rout through each component and I hope when reconnected to the boiler and oil supply line that this will have resolved the problem. I have also discovered on cleaning the heater control that the threaded hole which was the subject of my initial question has the words 'Over Flow' hard stamped into the body casting. There is no latch on this model of heater control. Thanks again Derek
  2. Thanks again for your help
  3. Thanks for your last two posts. That is very helpful. Can you please send me the link to the earlier thread with the photo you refer to. Regards Derek
  4. Thanks. Do you mean that so long as I get a long enough bolt with the correct thread that this will do the job? I’ve searched the internet but can’t find any detailed data sheet for the heater control model. Derek
  5. thanks for the comment but I have removed the fuel lines in and out from the heater control to service the unit on the bench. The fuel in and out connections are on the sides of the heater control. The threaded hole I am asking about is on the underside of the heater control.
  6. Just bought a boat with a Kabola E7 boiler - not working at the moment probably because old fuel not getting through. Have removed heater control to service it and noticed a threaded hole in the Underside which clearly should have something screwed into it. Please can anyone tell me what is missing from the heater control and whether I could still obtain the missing part?
