Search Cherosene or Paraffina. Maybe available at filling stations.
Looking good. Most interesting. Especially the glass strips globe.
Isn't this an area where the solder has not flowed as well as other parts of the circumference? I reckon it let go at the weakest point. If the...
It shouldn't be a displacement reaction since Iron is more reactive than Copper. It makes me wonder, since the copper is deposited only close to...
On my 285 the O ring between plastic fuel pickup tube and valve body was leaking. I have had it on 533 stoves as well. Causes all sorts of strange...

Most likely between 1973 and 1979 when VAT was 8%. That should have made the VAT 2.4p but they seem to have rounded down. It was never lower than...
Doing OK for 2024 but still with all that silly pixelation. Not needed. Gävle's brilliant Christmas symbol
