    For normal service parts anything "Hipolito" should fit.. What do you need to get it going? Pump leathers are sefa's speciality..

    Roger,
    I use the back end of a wire numbered drill. I just cleaned the jet on my Honda CT110 yesterday with a #74. You'll have to experiment to figure out which drill will fit if you cannot find needle to clean the jet.

    Hi,
    I haven't done it myself, but have read on the forum here that certain guitar strings will make a good pricker. Fellow mentioned a high E. That could be anything from a .08 on an electric guitar to about a .14 on an acoustic. Steel strings of course...
    Best,
    Randy

    or Radius depending which variant it is. But in both cases standard Primus or Optimus parts from equivelent models should do the trick.

    No - but any that do will be selling old stock as they are no longer made. Let us know what bits you need & we should be able to tell you the available equivalents.

    Hi again Rogerio - try the links page for parts suppliers. Even our forum sponsor Basecamp will ship to the USA. Please let me know what parts you need for your stove & we'll do our best to recommend equivalents from the available stock these suppliers are likely to have.
