well what a pain lol. the pump action was smooth, hard to explain. the tank got pressure. i looked the jet, but could get the pricker in. So plan B, i used a i know working burner (from the Parasene ) Primed. then moment of truth.. Drum roll!! So guys, unless i get a spare burner. i’ll have to change ova burner when i use the Parasene. as you prob say, the one thing i couldn’t check is the NRV. So maybe in new year the Svea along with the Monitor will go to another that could sort them. I love the Parasene, so hope it grafts lol. Bri
Hi Bri, So what went wrong with the Svea to make you swap out the burner for the Parasene one? Was it blocked? If so, it needs decoking. A way to tell would be to unscrew the jet from the blocked burner and holding the riser end to your lips try blowing through it. If your cheeks puff out and your eyes cross, chances are it has a blocked burner! Not the end of the world - there is a current thread going on at the moment about heating one up and pushing air through it to clear the carbon. I know it is only half a job, but you could gently scour the first parts of the tubes with a slightly frayed cable, like a piece of bicycle brake cable and tap it on a surface and see what comes out. No.5 sized burners are an easy find secondhand and you already have your one removed. I would send you one after Xmas = I first need to check it isn't blocked!
Probably only a blocked jet. Easy enough to unscrew the jet. Then just wack in a new jet or drill out the old one to open it up. 0.32mm bit and a finger drill and jobs a good-un. I'll get a couple of 0.32mm bits up to you when post re-starts after Christmas
Thanks lads, Tbh never thought about trying to fiddle on with jet Dean. I thought I had to get a proper tool to get ? Hah! Igh371 After new year I could meet up. I struggle without visually seeing something I get confused. Maybe you could rescue the monitor as well hahaha! I’ll say Happy Christmas & New year now, but hope to get the Parasene at least started.

Forgot about every Stove has its on Querks, priming & lighting, if you know what i mean? It was good to fire up the Parasene again after replacing things. This has amazing pump and i took my time with only one pump, then increased when ever. Happy as Larry!Brew time. HAPPY XMAS & MERRY NEW YEAR ALL Bri
BTW my simple wood n clamp set up is i can one hand pump without it going all over the place..crude but works. aye the Parasene is a keeper, love it. one day maybe with Ian’s help might get the monitor up n running agsin! seemed like it was my ‘Devil stove!’ not giving up on it. right best get my Christmas jumper oot! and go to my Mams and pick my daughter up! keep safe you all, and try n chill.
