See the black screw that is about two inches to the left of the wires, just above the bolt, just unscrew that slowly and count the number of turns (very important!) Try not unscrew it all the way and then wait until oil starts flowing out through it. Allow it to run out for a couple of seconds so that you know you have bled it fully and then screw it back in to the same number of turns. I think this regulates the amount of fuel that goes into the burner so if there's too much flow it'll burn too much oil, too little goes in it probably won't work too well.
