How can I fix a Potterton boiler with low pressure?

how do you adjust the pressure as its very low and in the red i.e. under half a bar. Boiler is lighting but central heating not working and water is not hot...also turned the dial up to max but still no difference.

If you're talking low water pressure, I had the same problem. I increased the water pressure on my potterton lynx combi boiler by attaching a snake pipe to the water inlets, opened both taps to allow the water pressure to increase. Remember to close off both the taps once you've got the desired pressure.
