Started her up and saw this after about 20 min run. Steam coming from top of boiler.

    In all likelihood, boiler needs to be replaced. Hard to tell from the video. Are you sure it's coming from the boiler and not from the glass or something like that?

    Could be a flange gasket where the pipe covering blows up in size or a union but most likely the boiler. Flood it when it is cold as others have mentioned.
