    Hello
    Finished fettling my latest heater yesterday. It was missing heat cone and holder and also heatshield.Found the heat cone on eBay and made the other items by myself.I had to replace tank lid washer and then oil the pumpleather.I like this better than my Opt 5 S heater as it will burn longer(bigger tank).And it is also not so high.brgds Bjørn

    I think 2 x Standard Nr.1 or Nr.2 stove fuel tanks put on top of each other would describe the approximate size of the Nr.33 fuel tank. They are huge and wouldn't require refilling for some time.
    It takes a fairly strong hand and arm to lift a full one hence the big handles. And I'm talking of the weight when it is set up as a stove so a heater setup would be heavier I guess. John

    Hello

    If you have the potlegs it can be used as a stove.
    The tank can take 2 liters of kero and will burn for 8 hours brgds Bjørn
