Rummaging through old boxes of junk, found a Zippo. Judging by the stamp, a lighter production in 1997, January.

Since the lighter lay very long, then the wick has worn, and wool prirzhavela to the body. Clean the housing, changed the wick and cotton. But there was one problem - the lock cover position. In my opinion, it is not properly installed. When you open the lid, she lifts the latch and get out of the lighter housing. And as he was riveted, it should otklepat, rearrange and again something riveted. Like what - I do not know. So, tell me what is wrong with the lock. I would be grateful.

PS At the same time, help to determine the authenticity.

I understand from the description that we should just let go side inserts, so he at the opening of the case does not pop up.

Slimka normal, they are not fake because the circulation in comparison to the "big" Zippy too small, not much they populyatny.

for authenticity - a fake. well, or a copy. as you like more. To me that so well - Gamna.

Treatment: throw out and buy a normal Zippo.

The model is really narrow, "slimka" so-called.

For authenticity is very interesting to know, as a lighter, as I said earlier, not purchased, and found a "family cellars."

If fake, then let it be like to doponenie IMCO Streamline 6800.

As for the lock - if his rise to the wind protection, then when you close the lid, it is not folded back.

Let it be, do not throw out, counterfeiting is rough enough that the words "slimki not fake" take back, just never seen it. But if it is lit, use it as a cigarette lighter, and not as a sacred cow)))
