    Another stove out for the first time in years. It took 12 minutes to boil two cup-fulls of water, meths fired and took a blow down the filler to get any priming meths flowing! It will need a fettle...

    Turm Sport. Reliable, but they do take a bit of time.

    12 minutes is long, are you unscrew the fuel tank cap to try it?
    Flame seem to be weak!!!

    Yes, all unscrewed. On the blue/yellow Turm Sport the control knob is is screwed into the filler cap when stowed, when in use there is the vent, it's a neat device. There will be some sort of packing in the longitudinal tube, and there's loose rust in the tank which is probably adding to the problem
