    After seeing another question on here about outdoor oil burners, it got me thinking. My one is a firebird, the last time i had a good look at it I remember there were 2 maybe 3 dials on it.

    Can anyone suggest the correct 'nunmbers' i should have these dial turned too?

    Cos if there is a more eficient way to run it, I'd appreciate any advise :-)

    OR to be more specific, what is the most economical temp setting to have on the external burner. I'm sure there is an economical setting on it, but it's ages since I had a good look at it. The last time, I needed to bleed the oil line of air. not bad for a Girl.......with 'no clue'

    Depends on how cold it is.
