Just found your blog. I will spare you of my story but I just wanted to say thank you for the time and effort you put into it! Im thankful for the knowledge you share.
A dab of Superlube silicone grease under that cam lever on the white plastic ,like with the amount you might get if you dabbed up.some on an eyeglass screwdriver should fix dat right on up from what I'm hearing. That's what I use for all my lighters and things with O rings, fire pistons etc
I have 2 of these and besides the tall flame (which is fine for me, but, it runs out within 3 days, w/ almost no warning) is they get really friggin hard to light after a week or so. Then I flip the flint over and it is fine for awhile. But, I keep wasting 1/2 used flints. Which I find annoying (The old style would use the flints pretty much all up.). These new ones will throw tons of sparks. I don't get why they refuse to light. I also put a blob of JB weld on the button because it is so small and I thought that the excessive amount of free play in the button throw may have been causing the no light issue. And, I took it most of the way apart and I turned the tiny c clip that controls the release of the fuel. But, neither improved the no light issue. Only thing so far that helps is adding fuel or flipping the flint over/replacing it with a new one. Currently, I am only 50% happy with these inserts.
try cleaning the spark wheel with alcohol... after trying to light with no effect, i noticed my thumb was black. my guess is that the dust from the flint accumulates and makes the wheel have less friction or sth like that... after cleaning, i was able to light again with no effort. but it needs cleaning like once every 3 days or so for me so there might be another issue as well in place
