You might want to update your furnace Chris, oil and gas furnaces of that age tend to rob fuel, when compared to the new technology. Having worked as a stationary engineer operating both steam and hot water heating boilers I can honestly say that the fuel is far more expensive than the furnace. Over time the fuel costs really adds up. Typically fuel savings will pay back the price of a new furnace in 5 years or less.
I was forced to retire early from my job by this lousy disease, I loved the place and paid visits after I left. The job didn't feel like work unless something bad was happening; I may say I did not like being called in at 2Am for the dreaded no heat calls. I gave a lot of information out to the new guy who took over saving him a lot of trouble of finding out where all the piping goes through that place.
