Thanx Lance, I'll give the soap and water a try. I'm hoping you're right. A question for anyone with a 209 burner, does the filter fit tightly...
Doc I gotta move to your neck of the woods. I have never found a brass beauty in any sort of shop around here. It is a shame. Go back and get...

I got the mail Doc thanx again. Here's a couple of pictures of one of the burners. |imgRemoved| |imgRemoved| No u-tubes just one big body....
Thanx Doc. So Alan and Doc are your burners the traditional u-tube silent type? -franco
Yes Doc I would love any info you could send my way. None of the parts on my stove are marked with SVEA. The burner is not your usual silent...
Calling Homestrand owners.....help!!!! I just RX'd a Homestrand 205-32A stove and it was in need of some attention. For those who may have not...
