I'm ditching the pack once bad gasoline, changes to the usual cotton, but 100% cotton. The result is excellent, neither the work nor the effectiveness of ignition is not significantly different from the original. But this must be careful. First, most of the wool sold in drugstores now, at least, half made of artificial fibers, and here it is as padding is not very suitable. Second, it is necessary to fill correctly, and better run the wick in the wool "snake." By the way, I tried once, as only lyubopytstvennogo experiment, change the wick on native zippovsky ronsonovsky same brand, it was too "Kucheryavykh" he looked - a fine weaving, and on the tail - a thickening as a rattlesnake's tail. Since the results did not like native zipposky - better, at least in the Zippo. The same thing - with kremeshkami. Ronsonovskie work fine Ronson and Zippo is better to use native. And god forbid you use dubious or NEzippovsky gasoline! Even equal in price range and European. All these Newport Royale ... This is from the evil one. Refuel their other Benzinka, Ronson, old vitazhnye others. But not Zippo. Believe me, they are there in the Zippo MFG. CO. is all figured out a long time and the best way.

I began to meet regularly to come to me vintage Zippo nonnative shnurkoobraznye wicks - so thick :) Although it is possible that this is not just a string, and a wick away any tolskty Ronson. In any case, it is interesting to experience the kind of work :)

not have to drive to Newport))

By the way the thick wick. I understand what it is. I have a wick is :) Here it is:

Right regular wick and wick to the left that I got in the store.

Now for the Merchant. He is much more resistant to burning. If the standard fuse (right) starts to blacken in a week and a half (not burns, but only begins to blacken), the wick left I started to duck just as much as 3 weeks. By the way I like it more, because from it and blow out the flame above it harder. To that it is quite hard. This can be seen by the fact that woven wire thickness 2 times. it is less malleable to bends when installing an insert in when replacing wool, but if you have already laid down, then presses the cotton itself sebe.Iz-this thickness, it fits snugly into the copper cap inserts (a hole from which it sticks out), and thus less slots for unwanted fumes.

So I pulled it just for the sake of this photo) He even still wet in the photo, did not have time to dry. Right now, I will shove back, as he told me a lot more like it.)

Lace - is powerful. I even lighter for $ 100. never seen anything like it 0_o.

And someone tell me what the hell a petrol lighter, bottom plug is felt? She kind of gasoline as well as wool and absorbs, and therefore can not hold it. Can I do without it and what it replaced?

about wicks - the same "string" in quotes. unreinforced wick is very common in non-Zippo petrol zazhigalkah.v mostly old.

She holds a pair, not the gas. is the right to fly igniting this design.

Let courage to disagree. If the property has a felt pad impregnated with gasoline as well as wool and (she soaked), what it can zaderat pairs if these couples will evaporate herself the same? If it was a rubber plug, it is clear ... Rubber does not absorb liquids and breathable. It tight.

oniks1, you really Maniac 0_o. Exactly! In the same store you can spare flint to nebylo surprises somewhere away from home. Right now there primastyryu spare tire :)

ZY In general, I wonder what the real purpose of the holes in the pad?

felt and wool soaked in different ways.

That's it! Felt quickly filled, it voids more air. the filler and pressed it needs time to fluid passes through it. felt he should quickly soak-on as an indicator of

And that is true, Newport-toplivo.Seychas good, though, ZIPPO zippovskim refuel on the principle of like to like, and Newport for his first IMCO.No ZIPPO many years ran the Newport and everything was fine.

what "subjective"? Quality - yes, they are almost identical, but vonyuchesti - zippovsky most nevonyuchy.

Well, yes ... tell me ... :))) And what - lighting a cigarette, do not you feel a pleasant taste, swallowing a wonderful couple, who do not have enough, if a light from gas lighter? :)))

I agree. Somehow it is not fun when lighting a stink like a gas station. When closed the lighter, smell, or maybe not, but do not let God open it ... and stinks bad gasoline will be spread throughout the room. The street course is easier.
