I was never able to find my air adjustment, picture is incorrect. If
you have any kind of a blue flame forget it. I think the air must be factory
set. The furnace in my 79 stream and my Snap-on Tool truck had adjustments.
Over the 12 years I had the tool truck the most trouble I had was with
the high temp limit switch. It would get dust inside and lock out. Over
the years I learned not to remove the furnace with out first delivering
two kicks with a # 12 combat boot to the lower right hand corner of the
furnace ( limit switch location). This usually cured the problem by knocking
the dust loose. Crude but very effective. Every time the furnace starts
up in the 89 stream I wonder if it will light and
keep burning. I sometimes think that Suburban Furnaces are sired by
iceboxes.
