Weil-McClain PILOT orifice
Hi all,
I have an older Weil-Mclain PEG-40, natural gas, 125,000 btu with spark ignition and mercury flame sensor. Does anyone have a part-number manual that includes the electronic controls, ignition, Pilot etc. The only manual I found online has only the sheet metal, boiler sections and related parts.
I'm trying to find What the gas Pilot orifice size is
and Part Number for the orifice ?
Thanks.

WM used the WR cycle pilot on several of their gas boilers, the natural gas pilot orifice is pictured as #3 if you click on the screenshot you can zoom in. It has a .020" diameter orifice and that is a little larger than standard orifice for Honeywell, WR and other manufacturers. If you use the WM part number 560-528-958 at the supply house you can expect to pay triple. Just ask for the natural gas orifice that fits on the end of the 1/8" pilot tube. That should be all you need if your counter man has any experience.
This one may fit https://www.supplyhouse.com/Resideo-390686-5-020-Natural-Gas-Orifice
If that is not the correct shape than try this one https://www.supplyhouse.com/Robertshaw-10-208-022-Natural-Gas-Orifice-for-Robertshaw-1820-1830-Series it is only .002 diameter larger and should be fine
Those are the two different orifices that slide over the 1/8" pilot tube that I remember using.

After you make that expensive repair and you still have the same problem, What will you check next?

Hi, Thanks for the reply. My Pilot Burner Electrode Assembly is E50-104, photos attached. It appears that the gas tube threads into the orifice. I found one which I believe could be the correct part, but I want to confirm the part number before I order it, attached here are two photos of what could be the correct orifice that I'm trying to confirm.

Weil McLain charges too much. and that WM part number does not have the electrode for the sparker. It is for standing pilot burner only. This one looks a lot like yours https://www.supplyhouse.com/Baso-Gas-Products-Y90AA-3223-1-4-Inlet-Fitting-w-023-Orifice-Natural-Gas. It has a .023 orifice
Will keep looking for .020
Here is a .021 orifice https://www.controlsincgas.com/Product-Name/Y90AA3221

Thanks! I am going to disassemble my pilot assembly to see if there is a size stamp or marking on it to confirm.

Why do you need one?

I'm installing a new Pilot assembly and would rather not reuse a 25 year old part if i can avoid it.
