drip
I installed a furnace with an AFG, it's dripping under the gun; I'm guessing it could only be coming from the nozzle connection. Do I need a new nozzle line? I already tightened down the nozzle (not too tight, but tight enough)
Thanks,
Gary

Make sure the gasket around the ignitor is intact. A bad gasket can cause the air/oil mix to swirl back into the burner.0
