Need help re: boiler replacement

Does the boiler leak? Some times old boilers get so loaded up with sediment, they need to be replaced.

    Hi,

    I think I posted to the wrong place, so let me try again.

    I just bought (a weeek an a half ago) a 1946 built 8-plex with gas-fired boiler heat.

    I have been told that it needs to be replaced, but from some possibly unbiased persons.

    How do I know for sure that it needs to be replaced? And, should I replace it with another boiler, or some other type of heat.

    Obviously, the most cost effective way is important, since I just bought the place.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
