Thanks for the info and link everyone. It sounds like buying a new carburetor is the way to go. Should I buy a new heat shield? Do you think...
Thanks Jeff! I hope it works well after replacing the seals and getting a kero carburetor. Reinhard, is it worth it to re solder a Preston loop...
I'll update you all once the lantern arrives. I am curious about the paint. Have any of you ever seen a petromax painted from the factory? It's...
Will regular gasoline foul up the loop on the kero generator?
I read the article. His final conclusion gave me a laugh. If anyone hasn't read McRaes article, at the end he said he's convinced the petromax is...
