Might take a look at that since this issue seems to happen after the oil fills. Google Tiger Loop for more info.....

At Tummyman's suggestion I've googled the Tiger loop device, I believe this may be a solution to a long standing issue for me. In the years that I've owned my home at the lake I've always had a couple of no starts every year with the solution being a simple press of the reset button on the burner. I've never associated it with oil deliveries but it's entirely possible that the incidents lined up in time. I'll certainly pay attention to this in the future and if a no start matches a delivery again I'll have the Tiger loop installed.
Thanks for the info Tummyman, I have a feeling it will become quite valuable to me.
