i am installing a newyorker wood/coal unit. I want the controls to be seperate from the oil boiler its being plumbed to. I plan on using a L4006B for overheat, but which aquastat should I use in conjuction with a thermostat? the new yorker has a draft blower on it, I will need to control it and the circulator.

A Honeywell L8124C will do high & low with a differential and also use a thermostat and run a circulator....maybe even an L8124 A or B would suit you. I can't remember the difference in the details. I'm not sure what control is used to run a draft inducer. I think they come with their own seperate control.

well I figure the draft blower would get connected to where you would connect the burner motor....the way I see it is the draft blower would run up to like 180 or so, then back on at 160......just like the burner.
