Lighter filling issues

[dinoa2]

May want to wirebrush the sparker and area around it, then blow it out. I think I've had a similar issue when I was using an unknown branded gas and this worked.

Sounds like it is filling properly, but the fuel release valve to the jets is stuck open. May want to try constantly flicking the switch on/off to try to get the valve to cycle.

Lastly, I'd do a "drop check" - dropping the lighter on it's capped head with a bit of force (since it's light). It may help the repositioning of the mechanics in there that're tied to the valve. Since you were an I-Level guy, don't ask where this "check" originated.

Sounds like smacking the tv on the side in the old days when nothing else worked. Lol

Lol, i grew up with a tv where the picture would roll or get all scrambled, and this was the only solution that would work.
