Oil burner size

[peterjd89]

So I'm think of going to oil next year for several reasons. One I have made 200 gallons of syrup and burned 65 face cord. I'm also getting an ro so that will help but between work the farm and the family wood is taking alot of time. So what average amount of oil to make a gallon of syrup and bc if I had to buy all the wood I'd be over 3600 dollar and I have a 3×12 arch so what size Carlin burner would work fo that arch

I have a Carlin 701 on my home built 3x12. I go to 17-22% and use less than 1/2 gallon of oil to make a gallon of syrup.

I would say their numbers are starting points. I run 2-5.5 Hago brand nozzles. 85° hollow. Pressure about 125psi. Stack runs about 500° I played with a bunch of different nozzles. Finally had to back of pressure and upsize nozzles to get front of syrup pan to boil well.
