I have a Burnham 5B boiler that is gas fired. I have an old moline vapor system with a vaporstat. I woke up this morning to a cold house. I reset the igniter and the system starts up, but begins to generate steam, but shuts off before getting the house up to temperature. I then have to reset the igniter, and system will do the same thing. Is this a bad pilot, or bad igniter?
