aladdin blue flame

this was my dad's old stove, i cleaned it up a touch and fitted a new wick.
left most of the morning to soak. lit it but only got a very low flame,
here is a photo, have i done something wrong ?
the wick moves up ok and wheel is free to turn easy.
your help please chaps!!!

 

I run mine with a low blue flame.
The heat is a slow but a constant heat.

 

Maybe the wick is not properly fitted to the carrier ? Been many years since I have worked on a blue flame heater.

 

Perhaps the wick is charred. Did you trim it?

 

Aladdin series 32 heater

This was what I had with my Series 32.

Also make sure that the wick has been pulled up to the top stops in the carrier.

The chimney needs to be clear as well.
