    no oil flow

    Fire-o-matic valve is closed or the handle is bad. Stem shoud be sticking up. Solder in handle broke and valve shut.

    Pump strainer in side pump is plugged.

    The pump coulping is slipping.

    The metal yoke that goes around the oil valve is missing.

    Wires for valve is connected to wrong terminals.

    The pump is no good.
