Thank you to those who posted about cleaning a clogged burner with the heat-quench-tap-tap-tap method. The tap-tap-tap was very important, but worked. I had no Citric acid, but did final rinsing with lemon juice. Clog is gone. Not sure the stove will fire yet, but wanted to give my thanks to those who share freely of their knowledge. I hope this #45 becomes a trusted friend on all my adventures from here on out. (Still need to find a fire ring... any leads??) Here she is:
Hi Grandpa, Welcome to CCS. If you want an inexpensive flame ring St Paul Mercantile in Maryland has these: http://www.stpaulmercantile.com/index.php?action=store&item=2412FlameRing It isn't brass. It's more like brass colored steel but works OK. If you want a real brass flame ring that says Sweden on it I'd recommend Base Camp our site sponser Ray
My bad... I don't know all the parts names yet. I was talking about the 'pot stand ring' that the support arms slide into.
By the way, where the riser tube attached to the tank, there were two - what looked to be lead washers. Any reason there would be two? I only re-installed one. The stove does not have a jet so I can't try it yet. Will post flame pics once I have it 'fired up'...
