you say you have just moved in have you just filled the tank from empty ? if the last owners were kind enough to run it out the pump will need priming/bleeding to draw the oil through (you wont get any oil in your return line if you havent even got a flow to the boiler in the first place)
Backtrack the fault from your pump crack the pipe joints if they are nut & olive joints and not soldered(dont undo them completely) to see if you get a weep if not keep going toward the tank
Have you checked your inline filter ? this could also be restricting the flow if the tank has run dry & drawn all the shite through (but your tank should be angled away from the outlet to stop this)
What make of boiler is it ?
If your boiler is firing for a short while then "locking out" its probably your photocell lens covered in soot or the nozzle is blocked, hope this helps
