I did not properly photograph the stand but it appeared to look and operate like the photo shown by OMC. There is a little gap in the pot stand...
{admin - A topic on this interesting stove & it's surprisingly late date can be found here.} I assure you all this is no delayed April fools...
I assure you all this is no delayed April fools prank. I will post the complete photo set I tool while examining this stove at the Servimont...
Wow on the date stamp changing what is known!!!!!! I am very glad I took photos of all the markings on the stoves that I could get my hands on out...
Is the Svea key tool compatible with the MSR line, and likewise is the MSR tool compatible with Sveas? Just intellectual curiosity itching at me.
Sounds like it was a priming issue. This time, try filling up the priming bowl with white gas and drizzling the same mount over the burner bell...
We believe in the 2 stoves for 2 people in winter as well. The MSR was being fed a large pound canister of winter Jetboil mix. It did not run out...
I don't know the times for snow melt, Sooty. We had the 3.5l Open country pot with an attached MSR heat exchanger going constantly. We used a bit...
Try fueling it up and dropping it into a pot of warm water. Bubbles should arise from any leak points. Also try cranking down on the cap, it may...
This post has exploded since I've been away on Whitney. Irresponsible? Not the first choice for many but for the reasons listed here bringing a...
I head out to start Whitney in a few days and I wanted to resurrect this thread instead of starting a new one to ask a few more questions if...
Slight change of topic Doc, but how do you prime with kero? I can't get kero to light. I use meths instead.
I've flown with my Sveas before. I drain them obviously, and then place them in the hot sun for a few days. This gets the gas flavors out. Never...
Thanks for the help. I just wanted to be extra sure as the 00 is quite old and I replaced most gaskets and the NRV last winter but the Manaslu is...
I've been tinkering with my Optimus 00 and I got a smaller lighter Manaslu 96 to join its kero cousin, but what I am missing is some non porch...
Its hard to beat canister stove convenience for warmer weather trips, where fires are banned or inconvenient. No flare ups, no priming, easy...
It took so long to get over here I actually ordered it from a NZ shop because BaseCamp was out of stock. I will probably just order old stock ones...
Hmm all 3 of my provided jet prickers do not fit, however a vintage pricker from a Optimus 00 works just fine, I'll just use that.
I hate to intrude into your post but my Manaslu 96 arrived the other day and the jet nozzle prickers that arrived with it do not actually go into...
To make it weigh less and be stronger of course! Also a wider mouth so a Svea123 can fit into it would be nice as well.
