    Well fettled!:thumbup::thumbup:
    What type of tank are you using?
    Some old town gas lamp glasses may fit.

    I made a small tank from a Coleman lantern, I cut down the generator cut down som brass tubing to slide inside the guttered our Coleman generator on the lamp, the adapted the hollow wire to that silver brasied it together. Bought a fuel cap pressure gauge all in one from eBay,@JEFF JOHNSON
    I put about 2.5 to 3 bar pressure. I used the valve on the tank and the on/off leaver on the lamp. To be as safe as possible, you never know next.

    Great job fettling a very nice lamp.
    Good ingenuity on the Coleman tank to test burner, hope you can get the original to operate as well.
    Good stuff
