never heard of this before, Simon. might give it a try when i next have a stove in bits...
interseting idea.
how many extra burner rings did your mate add, and did he have to change the screw [the one in the centre that retains the burner rings] for a longer one.

I have a little tip if you havent tried or heard off for the colman 533 petrol stove

A freind of mine doubled up the burner rings and now it runs like a dream i can turn it up or right down and cook perfect every time mine is brand new and it wouldnt ever turn down low so a mate of mine added more plates just under the generator and it runs like a dream.

Think they cost me a £10 but worth every penny

Hope that might help some one out good luck ... Easy to do as well

Yes, cover the hole with your thumb as you pump.........It won't build up the pressure if you don't, surley?

Have I just fell for a trick question?

Dave, another easy way is to remove the wire and squirt carb cleaner down the pipe, then put the cable back in and move it back and forth, then clean it out with a air compressor, works every time

maybe the tube if fractured and you wil need a new genny. if you have checked the nut that seals the genny onto the on/off switch and thats solid it may be worth undoing it and having a close look at the end of the genny where it fits into the nut.

if all else fails its going to be a new genny.
