    Hi all,
    While fettling up an old Petromax lookalike found a broken spring in the preheater lever. Now it doesn't snap in place anymore and does not press the seat on the nozzle to counter the pressure.
    All I found was a complete lever assembly as a replacement at my local petromax parts shops. Anyone has a source for just the spring?
    Many thanks!

    I never saw a single spring offered.
    Most likely a new lever assembly must be used.

    You might get lucky in a local hardware store that has an assortment of tension-springs. Perhaps one of those might fit.

    Hi, no spring sold separat. I guess this type 1 would fit AVSTÄNGNINGS REGLAGE KROM
