Oil furnace problem?

I never had a Oil Furnace that would not give me trouble..


New house same problems..





I hit the reset button and the furnace turns on... clicks alot smoke comes out of it.. a minute later it shuts off.





It was running last month when i moved in then it got warm again.. sticked the tank and there is oil.Oil furnace problem?
You said the furnace will run for a minute once it is reset then it quits again....What would need to be done is to check the nozzle and the electrodes to make sure they are clean and properly set...also the eye that is mounted on the transformer needs to be cleaned or changed ...the oil filter needs to be changed yearly...if you are not capable of doing these repairs call a service tech soon. Do not keep going to the furnace and repeately reseting the primary control..this could cause the furnace to build up excess oil in the firebox and cause an overfire situation ....Oil furnace problem?
It sounds like the oil filter or nozzle is dirty. The unit probably needs to have the routine maintenance performed on it. Oil furnaces just require more maintenance than other types. For a guide you can check the furnace page at my source. You may need to get a service call if you cannot do the maintenance yourself.
If its a new house get in touch with however installed it , must be under warrenty.
Rich's answer is correct, oil furnaces need to be serviced ever year, the nozzle and oil filter should be changed before the start of each heat season, and adjusted in with proper air intake, never try to make it 2 seasons without getting this done, some people can do this there self but most need a qualified experienced service technician to perform the routine service, usually it cost around 200 dollars for the complete service, good luck ,,,,oh yeah,, never hit that reset more than 2 times , if it does not start . it will load up on oil and could be very dangerous, and burn your house down,,, good luck.
Seems to me that your nozzle is clogged up, when oil is delivered I recommend that you shut of the heater prior to delivery and for about 30 mins after this prevents oil sludge from getting into the oil line a fouling the nozzle. As far a fixing the immediate problem you should call a service tech.
