Time for a new kit at your local lawnmower shop.

If the ignitor isn't glowing it isn't a fuel problem. It may be a pressure switch or bad ignitor.

Reply with the correct model number. "Pro 155" designates a series. We need to know whether you have a heater with a spark plug or a heater with an ignitor (glowbar).

Either a bad ignitor or gloplug.

1. Does the ignitor glow for 5 seconds when the unit is started?
2. What is the air pump pressure reading?

These are the starting points for troubleshooting a heater that has an ingntor.

Answer these questions and maybe someone can get you started.

What is the model number? Could be a number of things, depending on which technology is used on your particular 55,000 btu heater.
