    Hi guys,

    I some how got myself an old 1930 Primus 1001 and now I’m trying to separate the parts for deep inspection. However, I couldn’t separate the nozzle from the vaporizer tube. Is there a specific tool or technique on how to get it remove?

    see attached…

    Thank you in advance,
    Eleazar

    These threads are prone to heat damage, so if it doesn't need to come apart, I would leave it. You have already taken the mixing dome off, but these threads also have a tendency to get heat damaged.

    I would leave that well alone, it will clean up fine in-situ.

    I’m afraid I might break something so I’ll just leave it as is and follow you guys advice.

    thank you,
