    How to Bleed a 25 yr old Beckett Oil Burner
    Hi, I ran out of home heating oil. I added back 10 galllons to get me through the night till a morning delivery. How do I bleed the air out of the line so the Beckett Burner will fire? Thanks you.

    Locate the inline filter,should be a bleeder screw on top of it,loosen the screw until you see fuel. Some models also have a bleeder port where the fuel line enters the furnace.

    Also,since you ran the tank empty,I would recommend replacing the filter,who knows what you have pulled out of the bottom of the tank.
