1. Vent terminal - Visually inspect the terminal for restrictions, loose or missing
fasteners, external damage, and carbon build-up. Clean the vent terminal and the
screen(s) covering any opening in the terminal. Repair any minor damage. If
necessary, replace a severely damaged or degraded vent terminal.

leaks. Correct any, if found. Remove the burner and measure the ignition
electrode gap. It should be set to 5/32 inch. Adjust it, if necessary. Clean any
accumulation of dust, dirt, or debris from the air shutter or air band openings. If
necessary, clean housing and blower wheel with a damp cloth. Use a vacuum to
remove any lint or dust from motor assembly. Add a few drops of non-detergent
oil to each of the motor lubrication holes.

If the accumulation of oil or carbon is significant, this is a strong indicator that the
burner is out of adjustment. Inspect the burner nozzle for partial blockage and
