Victory Boat Heater/Stove

@kerophile: is the kerosene you talk about, what we use in zibro-kamin alike stoves? So no "lamp-petroleum" as we know it in Belgium but "heating" petroleum (kerosine)

 

Hi @DavSpel this is heating kerosene, NOT lamp oil!

It comes in several grades, for example in the UK:

Grade C2 is used for domestic central heating boilers and is relatively cheap if bought in 1000 litre quantities.

Grade C1 is more refined (it has a lower Sulphur content) and is recommended for lamps and heaters used indoors and vented into the room. It is typically sold in 5 litre quantities and more expensive than Grade C2

Trust this helps,

@DavSpel , the stuff that is sold in 20liter plastic containers for Zibro and similar kamins is perfect for use in our stoves. Sometimes your local brandstofhandelaar will have petroleum from the pump, this is (much) cheaper and of the same quality. You'll need to bring your own container!

Hi there,
I have the same heater that I'm trying to clean. Im not sure which burner I have would anyone be able to identify it? Thanks Andy

 

I do not know, but perhaps one of these:
Optimus 207b burner exploded view

 

I think I have identified as an Optimus 9007 but I'm not sure where to get spares?

 

Same spares as the Optimus 207 burners, you find them at base-camp in the UK

 

Thanks for the help! That's really useful.

 

Hi @AndyD28366 The link I sent you comes from Base Camp.
