    Choctaw H140 flame detector

    @cancunlarry short short version, if there is a flame, 2000 ohms or less, prefer less than 1000 ohms from wires F to F at K8 relay on H82, or wire TB3-1 and wire TB3-2 from terminal board TB3 I think those are the right leads on the h140

    What happens to an H82 when you bypass the safeties, K8 and thermostats? Lucky for these guys, you only fill the burn chamber with fuel and it floods out and not explodes the whole thing. There is a time and place for testing but for everyday operating, use the safeties, they are there for a...

    and there is a fix to a faulty unobtanium K8 relay. this is not exact, it does not have an alarm line, but it does have a light. the colored wires are same same, T-T are B-W from old, and F-F are same. I used this on a H82 that has been a cycle 2-3 times before running every time, with this...
