Re: Bleed oil pump
Called a bloke in - he claims the pump isn't pressurising and is dead, and has wandered orf with it.
Does fuel starvation kill these things? I suppose it's possible but I assumed that's what the electronics was supposed to prevent.?
It could just be coincidence I suppose ....
Anyway, experience tells me there's a high chance he'll just tell me that the pump is unobtanium and I'll end up getting one off Amazon/Alibaba for tuppence and doing it myself ....

Re: Bleed oil pump
I've not dismantled one of tht make but the ones fitted to Riello boilers have a slightly shit drive key design. Improved ones are available via Ebay. I'll try and find a link.
