Re: Am I blind? Not seeing the gas shut-off valve.
as far as i can tell there is no space inside for a field installed manual valve. It looks like there is factory installed tubing from the gas inlet on the bottom to the automatic gas valve.
that is likely boilerplate they bought from someone that has been the same for 40 years and is for conventional boilers with a manual knob on the automatic gas valve.
Re: Push nipple radiator problem
I would just snug up the draw rods and pressure test and see what happens.
Re: Am I blind? Not seeing the gas shut-off valve.
I can’t believe they didn’t install a valve at the equipment!

Re: Low water cutoff not working after cleaning pigtail
Assuming you have a number 67 low water cutoff. The black thing with the lever. The float might be stuck.
Re: Am I blind? Not seeing the gas shut-off valve.
Isn't the one in the third picture right above the boiler? That is the one to use.
Re: Am I blind? Not seeing the gas shut-off valve.
Follow this line back to the meter. If you don't see a shutoff valve, then the valve at your meter will be the shutoff. There should have been one at the boiler.
Re: Tempstar furnace no heat.
Oh, it definitely has a pilot. That’s what the 1/4” aluminum tube from the gas valve is feeding.
The spark lights the pilot, not the burners.
