It’s been a little while but £20 brought this little gem across my path! Date code says it’s a 1932 model - in lovely condition with a well-used tin, albeit complete with meths bottle, prickers and original instructions! The stove itself was bone dry! All seals and leather totally gone. However, a quick replacement last night and she fired up lovely, though I think there maybe an enlarged jet as she seems to be running a touch rich although with lots of blue! Anyway, for this who like such things, enjoy…
It looks a bit too rich. You should be able pean the nipple hole down to about 9 thou of an inch. Check those pickers for diameter. There was a thread on that. When the millennials start talking about the new pocket rockets, tell them it ain’t new. I got one from 1932
Your prickers 4122 are fine. They’re the right size; they should be 0.23 mm. The 4606 are also 0.23 mm and are more commonly found. The nozzle is probably a bit worn. Try it with less pressure, might help the flame to look better. (more air, less fuel) I like these stoves with their patina.
