Re: What's this doing?
That's what it looked to me too.
I'm headed back over there and maybe I can get a better look at it and a number. Its hard to reach: down in narrow pit behind the boiler and about 14' up.

Re: Manufacturing in America
It's not just the welfare cliff -- there are similar disincetives at work with unemployment, Social Security, and other programs. As soon someone earns one dollar more than whatever threshold has been set, benefits instantly fall to zero. The answer IMO is some kind of transition zone, during which the bennies fall more slowly than the earned income rises.

Re: Recognize This Air Vent?
That's a Hoffman #74 vent. Not right for a Main vent anyway. The #74 is designed as a steam heater vent. The #75 is the correct vent for a main but it is probably way to small for the average Main.What's a "Steam heater vent" ???

Re: Microamp readings with DMM...do you ever get steady reading?
Will moving the rod into the flame stabilize your reading? If it's not in a good ionized portion the reading can bounce. Look at your ground to the chassis and burner, microamps are very small and any poor/marginal connections will present a problem.
