    The story so far. I bought a coleman 236 with a damaged tank. I've swapped the tank for a powerhouse 295 tank. The tank seems to pressurise ok and doesn't appear to leak when tested in a sink of water. New fuel in the tank.
    I just can't get it to light! I think it may be a possible valve problem..I think air is coming out but not fuel. Any help appreciated.

    I've got it working!! Loosened the nut on the control spindle. It seemed to need opening the valve a lot more than other coleman lamps I've got. Ill see if it behaves itself, been a pain so far!
