Did you get the boiler working?
I have two pool pumps, two new cartridge filters, some 1 1/4 pipes and clips and T pieces and will bring some chemical test strips. Also bringing 15 litres of the palm based biodiesel I use for my heating system.
If you are really desperate and cant get any burners working, I could pull the burner from my pool boiler as wont need to heat that for the weekend and bring it up but would prefer not to

No but I've got my old electro oil burner running of a fashion, well once its fired up it seems fine and it fits ok ish in the boiler, I had a quick look and think we should be able to rig the thermostat as it looks like it just cuts the mains power, so fingers crossed, but it's good we have the M67 on standby.

The thermostat does just cut the power to the burner on most of them so easy to rig up

We are on route. M67 and drum *just* fitted in the Passat with some heavy tail gate slamming. Hope I don't need to get at the spare tyre  ;D
