Oil furnace not firing and smells like oil

I have a Beckett burner forced hot air furnace. This season, I've had problems with it not always firing. The oil pump and fan would turn on, but it would not light.

I changed the air filter, oil filter, cleaned the nozzle, cleaned the CAD eye, and bled the line of air.

Now it usually does fire up but when it runs it smells like oil very strongly in the house. What more can I do? ( I know call a tech, but I don't have the money right now). Thanks!
