    before my rapid burner funtions fine but not anymore. i checked it, cleaned it, and even replaced it completely because there was a damage/flatspot on the piramid shaped cone on the rapid body. but the new rapid burner also doesnt work. the petroleum vapor comes out and it burns aslong as i keep the lighter on. when i remove the lighter the burner goes out, i tryd differend preseures and new petroleum, searched the forum now im pretty despered because i love my petromax. in other words helpppp!!!


    grtz peter

    i think i know what happend, the needle inside the nozzle was broken off.
    i put that measure tool between the nozle and the pipe to check if it was ok, but i think when i did that the needle was positioned thru the nozzle and broke off, now i replaced the needle. so it was my mistake not the lamp. i will try to light it when it gets dark to check.
    thanks for your help willem


    regards peter
