Boiler cutting out

xabi · 2015-01-29 09:43:29

My boiler has started to intermittently cut out and i need to press the reset button to get it going again. Can be fine for a week and then cut-out more often, oil is low but not enough to cause this in my opinion. What else can cause this behaviour? It’s a Grant Euroflame 70/90, 4 years old.

Was serviced 18 months ago, got a fill of oil earlier and he said the oil level was too low and its possibly picked up some dirt / air - if thats the case, what should i do?
