Hello Do not know even what to do. After exactly 5 seconds of burning fire begins to decrease sharply and burns only at the base of the wick, and starts to smell burnt fitelem. I fill a sufficient number of gasoline, the wick in it bolzhen was wet. But he begins to decay and almost off. Again, at first everything is fine, well-lit, exactly.

What do I do?

I think there may be several problems:

1. Improper installation of the wick inside the insert.

2. Poor quality fuel.

3. "Left" wick.

4. Lighter itself is not real, the fakes often opening for the wick is less than normal and the wick does not have time to "get" gasoline for normal combustion.

3 and 4, this is an extreme case)))))

Try to start to shift cotton and correctly put the wick in the lighter ...... Well, and the EU-but it is meant that the wick should be charred and be up to the level of the windshield ......

What confuses you in them? They are flat, sitting tight. On my previous Zippo they were not as well made. But it is, by the way.

Again problema.Ya shifted wool, burning is normal, even good. But now began to burn again for 5 seconds and then a very small fire at the base of the wick. What to do now?)

Confused by this:

Quite often, which can be found on the insert fakes - rivet cam wheel and brass. Sometimes the only thing that allows one to say with certainty about the authenticity of inserts, as labels on the inserts - fake can sometimes be made ​​accurately and completely plausible:

On the original inserts or steel rivets, or through-

Perhaps the photo is not visible, but I have steel rivets.

Not in the nature of originality, although I'm sure it) The bottom line is that before it burned just great. Now somehow neochen, as I described above

Well on the case and photos can blame, from another angle, if sfotkat, then maybe we'll see .....

And I also think insert left, maybe because of this, and badly lit. By the way if you get the inserts in cotton, epoxy putty should be at the top, if you look inside the insert, then it turns on the bottom))) There-Is it there??

As for housing, it is necessary to look only at the bottom of the form, and all becomes clear. In general, annealing in all respects fake.

We mean that white putty ;) that it's there, just look. "Lower, ie upper 'interior inserts it covered.

Well so that the light is bad? Incidentally today said that immediately after refueling and somewhere within 1-2 hours after it stays on well. Next comes the tub as I described already. Can I have a little cotton wool, I changed it two weeks ago, and after that everything started. Who do you think?

Well what an insert fake it hundred pounds! No one I have not seen Zippe brass rivets!
By the way, I was lying one such insert, well, very similar to nastoyachy even kremnederzhatelya thread on the screw is the same as on normal zhigah! and only after disk imaging from this site I realized that fake. and in your case if you insert fake, then most likely, and wick! try replacing the present and more closely with its styling, and can do it!

Well, the owner claims that the photo just so clear, and in fact steel rivets ...... I now also think that it is fake then insert. The inscription on the bradford inserts seemed to me that instead of f is e, and it turns out that this is what it is ....

Cotton should be replaced or added, then somewhere on the site even has a video in which you can figure out about how much of it there should be. A wick, as described above, is also likely to the left as he insert. Definitely changed to nastoschee can then burn and will return to normal.

Not at all! In general, it is desirable to upload pictures taken macro photography, where it would have been clearly visible. I think they would immediately dispel any doubts in about lighters ....

Without macro seen it fake, but the wool is likely overly natrambovano, buy a new over the counter stuff and fluff well not much trampling her to not squeeze the felt pad ... yes even though God knows, I had had the same problems with zipami and then like that by themselves are gone. Now I can, and with a strap of the shoe to make and will be well lit))) experience as a chtoli acquired.

Unequivocal fake, and horseradish. Let me explain: if the "mega-experts" determined that the lighter fake, but it pleases trouble-free operation, it is a good fake! It can be used and no steam. But if the naked eye can see the fraud, but it also does not burn at the same time, the path is the same: to throw in the garbage disposal ...

Well damn here just ekneshsya, first lighter very similar .. like mine, bought with zippo.ru, but not the fact that not everything is fake or norms?

But there are two differences:

1. "Bradford.pa. made in usa "- on the first pictures shows that two points short of

2. I have the same color as the rivet that is lighter Iron color, not yellow - it rules?

3. you did not develop a new lighter, nothing you menyash there all the time, I certainly do not flame disappeared but twitched, and may be a month or more, and do not touch anything, then it is a ... (Custom Zippo petrol)

And the question is gasoline Royal, the smell is the same, there is a fundamental rift between him and zippovskim?
