Helo and good evening to all. So my Optimus 300 is not leaking. All parts are good as far as I can see and tested but because it is a gasoline lamp I want to be sure all goes well. How ever I read there is not more danger then with a kerosine lamp a lamp with gasoline is new for me. Can a lamp be tested without the sock and without the vent cap on the top to see if the first things go well ? Thank you for your answers..
Yes. See here: Testing burners The trick is to not use too much pressure: enough to get a good flame to see if it’s blue or mostly yellow. Cheers Tony
