Barrie,
The carbon that is coating the tubes is something that it is wise to remove,
as it is a great insulator.

Phill,
I think the hard coating of carbon in the flues will cause no problems
whatsoever as hard carbon is a good conductor of heat. Not so with the soot
etc, because it is not compact. I would leave it alone as long as the boiler
steams well.
