There is no upside to advising mateurs on oil burners. If you tell them it is dangerous, just push the button once, as some say on the machine or customer manual, then call a pro, they accuse you of wanting to make money. If you tell them anything at all, and they cause soot, smoke, fire, or explosion, you are to blame for not warning them. If you point out that it could be any number of causes for the problem, they find one and then brag how they found the one while you didn't catch that one. Even if you warn them and tell them what to do they still blame you. If you point them to a manual to do it, they complain it is too technical and they want a free lesson NOW. It's all about saving money.

The lesson to be drawn is to agree with a DIY for them to replace every part with a new one until the problem is solved. The danger is their business to 'get away with.'

Yes, you really have to find out the MAKE and MODEL to get good answers. There IS more than one machine made.
