Wow, that was fast. Thank you both for the helpful info.
Hi all, I'm rebuilding an older Svea 123. The SRV holds pressure for the first few minutes of running and then becomes a tiny flame thrower. I've...
Reviving an old thread... I've also noticed that the hole in side the inner ring of the windshield is larger in the 123R to accomodate the larger key.
Like a nickel anti-seize? I could give that a try. Thanks! some penetrating oil and a good strap wrench were my friends in getting the vaporizers...
Hi all, I'll take another stab at this thread to see if anyone will bite [-o< since now I have another 123 leaking from where the valve stem...
Yup, there it is. This is why I ask the dumb questions. Thanks!

You guys made my day. Thanks for the help. @Trojandog , thanks for your explanation. It is great to get the answer I need, it is better to know...
Excelent @Tony Press thanks. In looking at your post, you were saying that you couldn't get the graphite out, which would have meant that the...
So I'm gathering from these links that the 123 has no metalring. Correct?
Agreed, a stock set would be ideal, but the first goal is to make them both reliable "working" stoves for my family's travels. For now the wire...
I'd say both. :)
@snwcmpr , I made these handles short enough to be stored inside the windscreen as you mentioned. But after seeing @janders images, I could easily...
