I swapped the old "innenmantel" / "inner hood" for the version that matches with this lamp.
The pictures should show how it looks like now.
Now, it's getting better, it will light, but the brightness is not what I remember it would be.
I'd guess it's about as bright as a 40Watt lightbulb. It burns irregular, there's a halo around the mantle.
What could I do to improve that?
- I get black spots on the mantle, see pictures
- I've preheated for about 2 minutes with the rapid preheater
- I've adjusted the gap between the mixing chamber and the vaporizer top to 14mm according to the measuring tool.
- The vaporizer is a gasoline vaporizer, does not have the curvy tube.
I didn't use gasoline / Benzin yet, which I might in due time
- As fuel I'm using "Wunderblitz LampenOel" which says "liquid parafin/petroleum" on the bottle -- is this the right fuel?
How to proceed?
