    It could be time for a maintenance visit. Deposits of soot on the burners can cause cut outs and no boiler, especially oil, should be left for more than 12 months without a routine servicing. it's worth paying for as it will extend the life of your boiler by many years to do it regularly.

    thanks, was serviced last October , took burner out and next to nothing there. thank for the pointer thou.

    if I switch if off before it tries to start again , leave it of for a bit , no problems , only when you leave it on will it lock out
