My lighter came with no fuel. I went to refill it and the fuel can started spraying CO2 all over my handl. Did I do something wrong?

Follow the instructions that came with it. I think you need to purge it first ( use a pen tip to gently push until you hear "air" escaping). Then fill as directed - Butaine canister should tell you how too. Important to seat the canister straight into the valve and press firmly. And when you run low, you should purge again before refilling. Hope that helps.

Make sure the lighter is upside down and hold it firm. Make sure u insert can direct down not sideways and push it down and hold it for about 3 second bursts about 5 times. Mine works amazing. Some times if it's not upside down a and straight and can tilts it can happen. Push can down firm. I only use premium fuel cans

Oh wow! Well, they are all shipped without fuel to avoid hazard. I ordered Zippo fuel which works great. You need to hold the fuel canister upside-down to allow the fluid to drip into the lighter. Maybe there was a flaw in the lighter fluid can?

Mine would let off a quick spray before I tightened it all the way. I would make sure it's fully connected, and if you're still getting a spray of fuel, try another canister. If it happens then too you might have a bad connection, maybe try to return the stove for a replacement?

I'm just a shade tree mechanic...if that. It definitely sounds like he hooked something up wrong. I did it myself and the only issue I had was with the screws that hold the fuel rails (1 snapped off at the head). Sorry I couldn't help.

I apologize but I have to ask the obvious just to rule it out - did you refill the tank completely and did you use the same brand of butane? I had a lot of trouble with my torch when I switched butane brands without first draining my tank. If so, I recommend contacting Blazer through their website. They are quick to respond and very helpful.

Mine came full. just get a can of butane. zippo canister on amazon. ( http://amzn.to/14xgsgY ). stick the nozzle in and refill like J Halbach described below. watch this video from youtube for more in depth step by step instruction: (http://bit.ly/clWoY4). all else fails, take it to a local cigar/tobacco shop, plead mental disability, and ask for help. good luck.

Did you add "Stable" in the gas after the last run? It is most likely a gummed up carb, because of todays crap gasoline.

To fill you rotate to the backside and you will see a hole labeled "gas". Insert butane nozzle and fill.Hope this helps

You can refill the lighter yourself by removing the lighter insert from the case, which is quite simple because it slides out easily. When the insert is removed, you will see a screw on the bottom of the insert. Carefully remove the screw, and a spring will slide out...just drop a new flint into the hole and replace the spring and tighten the screw.

i used the long lighter, it light just fine. did you use the new propane bottle? I don't remember since i used it 6 months ago.

Did you add kerosene? Sounds like contaminated fuel (water). You need Mr Funnel. See www.milesstair.com. He has free excellent advice on care and maintenance.

You refill at the rounded bottom of the tank. That bottom part also turns to adjust the flame. I have two, and neither one work very well since I first had to refill them. The flame adjustment is out of whack on both lighters. I suspect this is caused by putting too much fuel in at one time. You might want to try using short bursts instead of one long one. I should mention that the fuel really pours out of mine when it is full, pretty much blowing the flame out, but every now and then it catches and you get a bigger flame than you want. If I turn it down it won't light at all.

Try to bleed out the system. Hold down the gas button for like 15 seconds then hit the ignite button. Fire should light. If no fire then theres no gas. If the fire starts hold the gas down for another 10 seconds then let go. It should stay on. If that doesn't work then the sensor in it might have died. Cant remember the name of the sensor but that happened to me before. When it died i just bought a new one.

Honestly, I don't think these are truly refillable lighters. Mine didn't work again either.

I have had know problems with the co2. Like all co2 guns when you first put it in there is that brief second of co2 leak but the faster you are at putting it in the better.
