Pt 1

hl. I have a primus pt-1 and I lost the needle and I can not get it, does the needle of the 8R work for the pt-1?

 

Hi @Yeison I think not.

From this thread:

Perhaps @Tony Press could comment.

Best Regards

I’ve not worked on a PT1, I’m afraid.

Hi Tony, Thanks for prompt reply

I say: Yes and NOT... mostly not.
from years - i have seen only two spare sets - i have one of this...
typical solving is buying next stove
its generate costs.

 

This seller on ebay has parts but I can't see a cleaning needle advertised. You might be able to contact him to see if one is available.

Last time I bought some spares for the PT - The seller had the cleaning needle in stock. When looking now as @gieorgijewski writes, you can get the jet and other parts, but no pricker.
I guess its a question of demand.
Will keep an eye out.
(Have asked one of the sellers (“sellsoviet”) - lets see what he answers

 

Does your stove run well without the pricker? You can use an external pricker if so.

 

hl
mira mucho en la aguja de ebay para pt-1 pero no puedo encontrarlo. hay algunas agujas para el 8R pero los vendedores me dicen que no funciona para el pt-1
¿Puede alguien ayudarme a encontrar una aguja para pt-1?

 

¿Tu estufa funciona bien sin el pinchazo? Puedes usar un punzón externo si es así.

 

From My perspective - all parts are aviable - but from dismounted stoves -

then - is strategic/logistic problem for calculate costs
old stove or new stove
if new - maybe is better buy new one
e.t.c....

If I always translate the texts when I paste them, they are again in my language, I will take it into account. Thank you

 

Reply from the seller “sellsoviet” on Ebay regarding if he had a jet pricker needle for the PT-1, his answer was: “Sadly not”

 

I do not want to change my PT-1 because it has a month of bought

 

Hi @Yeison you have been given good advice by @snwcmpr .

1. You say that you have lost the built-in cleaning needle.

2. Replace the jet.

3. Check that your stove shuts off and can operate properly.

4. Use a normal external cleaning needle to clean the jet aperture, when needed.

5. You should now have a fully working stove.

6. Check ebay regularly to see if a replacement PT1 cleaning needles become available again.

Good Luck.

Kerophile.

 

Here is an ebay seller of the needle pricker for the PT-1 (according to his own wording).
