    Gave up the burner and put it in a box. But today I got a 111B and came to think of the burner again! Is it possible and safe to run 221NA with petrol? Just moving the nozzle from the original burner?

    There is a gasolin jet, think you can get it from Fogas.

    Thought to take the gasoline jet from the original burner and put it in the 221NA. But is it made to work with gasoline?

    Have you tested different jets?
    I have tested several jets that has yellow flame With silent optimus burners (111T/221) and a jet change often Works, but not all jets are "the same" so i have tested several before all burners i worked With had a Nice blue flame.

    Have tried several nozzles. new and old from different manufacturers. Have given up burning kerosene in it but want to try petrol. (of course with the right nozzle) Is it even possible to get them to run well on petrol?
