Hi All,
I'm buying a house with an aged oil heating boiler circa November 2000.
From my investigations so far, it's a Grant Multipass 70.
It's been left out of use for some time, and the Green Plastic Tank in the garden is empty.
The optimist in me would like to just to fill the tank, press the start button, and enjoy it heating the house.
OK everyone finished laughing now?
I'd appreciate any advice, preferably in laymans terms, for restart preparations please.
Please don't say "get a reputable installer to replace it with a new one"; if I could afford that I wouldn't be here asking for help. (Just buying the place has made me skint for some time yet, especially where finding several grand for a new boiler is concerned!).
I've got a good set of general tools and can handle most mechanical/electrical challenges, I just need the advice, and any diagrams would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Andy.
