I have a Utica gas fired hot water boiler and one of my zones cycles very quickly and then shuts off. The t stat is set at 68 and it reads as 61 actual temperature in the room.
any thoughts as to what I can check to try and correct?

Do you have zone valves or circulators?
Can you post a picture?

Zone Pump
Is the boiler firing up on a call from the t-stat? If so, is it shutting down on high limit? If so, it sounds like your zone pump is not operating or the zone is air bound.
