Mike comment on needing more atomizer gets back to my original comment,
you need a reduced orifice size on the burner face (main supply orifice
isn't hugely critical) and slightly more pressure to reduce your droplet
size through the hole. In low viscosity fluids such as diesel this is
very critical but the same holds true in terms of getting high vis fluids
like cold vegetable oil (for instance) to break up into combustible
droplets.
