in Oil Heating
Just want to make sure everything is OK, I'm pretty handy with mechanical and have, with help , replaced a few parts on this oil burner and have been doing a yearly maintenance myself for the last 12 years, however just had a power outage for about 3-4 hours , Temps are about 25 - 30 F. And once power came back on notice the burner would rapidly cycle of and on for about 30 sec or so then stop for a minute then go again. This continued fir about 8 min or so each time the cycling was short and the Gap in between longer. Now seems to be ok and operating normally, just did not notice this after a power loss.
