Interesting repair with the wires. I will try it out of curiosity. At least Base Camp ships to Greece.
Do you think exhaust putty can fix this somehow? The two pieces do match together. [ATTACH]
Since we discuss burners, I have seen brass burners too (#3). They are expensive but what about them? They come with the part than they screw to...
Unfortunately, they do not ship to Greece. The ebay page says "No shipment to Greece". I wrote them an email in case they could do it but no...
Unfortunately, although they natch well, the crack is horizontal, parallel to the threads between the threads and the head of the burner. I do...
Bad luck. I tried to assemble the lantern and barely touched the burner to check that it is secured. Half of it fall in my hand. Now I have to...
Good! No visible leaks with water covering up to above the Preston loop. Last thing before I assemble everything back. Is it a good idea to pure...
Sure, yes, I am doing this as you describe. I have to do the dip in bucket test to make sure I have no leaks from other points and then I will try...
This can not be entirely true as I own a Petromax 500 without a rapid preheater which does have a foot valve which I replaced. But you say that...
If it does not have a foot valve what does it have? Can I fix this leak or not?
OK, so I removed the nozzle, the needle, the vaporizer and cleaned up everything to the best I could with mechanical means. The Bowden cable...
So chemical solutions are not easy either (sulphuric acid is not a "friendly" chemical). So my best bet it to start with mechanical solutions and...
I am afraid to straighten the vaporizer. I really do not know how to do it. The rod moves inside it OK. So I just need to clean things up and...
What does "The straight part can be drilled out" really mean? Drill means open a hole, but here it surely means something else. What is a tool for...
It seems difficult to get a replacement. I looked at ebay and also searched with Google, no results. I will keep searching, but in the meantime I...
Sure I could by new ones. But where from... Is there any source? petromax.de does not have them. If you know any source please advise me. About...
I removed the needle. The vaporizer could not be removed so I lifted it a bit to expose the rod and unscrew the rod from its base. With a few...
Thanks for the tips and information. I will try to remove the needle and see if it comes off. Also the unscrewing of the rod from its base is a...
I recently found a Hipolito 250 and tried to check and repair. Dipping the pressurized lantern in water, it revealed a small leak just above the...
Did not notice the link was to hytta.de Thank you.
