those rods are the spark gap for the burner. on top of the burner is the high voltage transformer that feeds to those rods. there's a screw or screws that hold it down against the end of the rods. remove these screws and the transformer hinges away from the rods. Inside on the left side is a knurled nut and a six sided gland nut. Use a wrench and unscrew the gland nut and oull it away from the fitting. This is a flared fitting and mates with the burner tube. Loosen and take off the knurled nut. back out the whole assembly and remove taking care not to disturb the gap setting. The assembly has a baffle plate inside the burner compartment, a burner nozzle and the spark electrode gap.
The gap is positioned at an angle slightly in front of the nozzle. Clean these off. Unscrew the nozzle and replace with another one of the same flame number - this is the angle of which the oil is sprayed out at. Also at the rear of the assembly is the Cad cell. This is the flame detector. Its normally mounted in a rubber grommet and points forward. Remove it and clean off the glass. Then push it back into place.
Put the gap-gun assembly back into place as you removed it and button everything up. Now start your system. See what happens.
