Tilly Powerhouse question

[Bimmer]

My faithful Tilley has developed a problem. The fuel (unleaded) has recently started to refuse to kick off when pumped to operating pressure. I've changed mantles. There is pressure present, but when I open valve, fuel does not seem to 'ionise' into lamp to support flame. Anybody know of somewhere that services Tilleys? I'm considering rigging up an airline and trying to blow out any obstruction, but feel this may damage any internal workings All ideas welcome. Heading out on Sunday... might have to be content with headlamp

have you been using it untill lately or has it been lying up? the generator is probably clogged i changed mine on my powerhouse and northstar and they are howling again the generators can be got in southside for around €15 thats the gold piece up the middle of the mantles

Thanks, Ste, I took it apart and that gold bar full of crap alright. Tried cleanin it but no use. Got on to Southside and they got them in stock, so will hit them during the week. Thanks again mate.

no probs the gold bar (generator) acts like a filter and after time with dirty juice will get clogged but when i put mine in my 2 lanterns they were flowing perfect and howling again.
