Are these prone to the "thumpty thump" farting noises I hear on the typical model oil burner? My geuss is it has more to do with the actual size of the firebox it's burning in but thought I'd bring it up.

If you are getting any popping on the Bagley Burner it is most liking because it wants more air.
To test for this, try opening the fire box door. If it sounds better with it open you need to make the slot in the fire pan bigger. Try it a little at a time, don't go over board. Most 1.5" Locos start with a slot about 1.5" X 6" long. If you have a wider pan make slot almost as long as the pan is wide.
On my one inch Atlantic the slot is 1" X 4". The slot goes at the end of the pan just in front of door.
I've tried to load the instruction for the burner, but it is to big for this forum.

Brian,
I have been trying to reach them for a little over a week now, Will says they are slow to respond. They must be out of town, hopefully I will hear from them soon.

Yes, very slow, but will respond and when she does, very easy to work with. Follow up emails worked well for me (after a week or so).
