Oooh an Alladin, tooney. I'd taken apart the fuel/air tube in the hopes I'd finally be able to match light the thing, I've always had to preheat with a propane torch. I think the gas tip had gotten dirty and so it didn't light right away and my torch melted the aluminum generator body. Oops...

Or is that a feature of those "wonderful" mil-spec lanterns? And is this where I'm supposed to apologize like the Nippons did for Rich? I'll not go that far, but I'm sorry it's giving you trouble. The 220F is still doing fine. It served in the front line for non-electric lighting until recently when I acquired a 228E and an Alladin 23. I did rebuild the generator on it - and managed to do that job without having to replace the mantels! -- Philip _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
