    I drive the little blue one in the evenings, and the big red one for a job!

    Nice stove,
    I've seen those used without the tank, just 1 cheap gasoline pump delivering 1.5 Bars and and quite long rubber hose dealing with the pulsating pressure.

    Some people states it may need a restrictor near the stove to reduse pulsating.
    I do'nt know.

    In most of them - mine included - there are restrictor jets just before the burners for that very reason.....

    and a nice boat too.
    If you will use your boat to travel to Norhern Norway, you are welcome.
    What size is the boat? 35 feet?

    Thanks for the link to the spares Ross. But the shipping to NZ is more than the stove cost me! I will get a pressure tank first, and see what needs replacing before getting any parts.

    Have been chatting online to Dad tonight (we live in different cities). He reckons I should have a stainless tank made up that the stove will sit in top of. Same footprint, 2" or 3" high. Bike pump valve for pressuring, and a nice little brass pressure gauge on the front.

    Don i'm with your dad on this one. same footprint and such means no loss in space except vertical. and at 2-3 inches no real loss anyway. A scharder valve and pressure gauge and you should be burning pretty and without any problems. S/S is the only way to go but be sure there is a proper drain cock so yo can drain any water which might get into your fuel.
