    Here we go. Before I had my 'health issues' I had ordered these parts, and some of them I can't remember what they are from. I gave away many of my lamps, so I can't now I.D. parts by disassembling what I have left. Here goes.

    Pretty sure Group A is Austramax because I had bought a whole new generator.
    Group B these are beautiful parts, beautifully made. Obviously the pricker and jet, other brass piece, and Big thick red plastic washer. Would love to I.D. these.
    C, Just one of those tiny o-rings.
    Next D,E,F.

    D, large plastic washers.
    E. All parts inside envelope, pump seal set but what for? Below, new jet, washers, o-rings, Ali washer.
    F. Washers, rubber spacers (lower right) about 4mm long, brass part looks like pump part?

    In case it might help I'll list the lamps I had (many now given away) for which I might have bought spares. Austramax, Solar, Veritas, Radius, Coleman, Tilley, Handi, Aladdin, Butterfly.

    Yes there may be PRIZES!!!!

    Group B looks very much like from a Chinese 'Anchor' type lantern. The nipple in Group E looks like an Austramax or Aladdin. Great idea on your part; it's so easy to end up with spares that are 'forgotten'. I've been working on labelling a few of mine too.

    17A is a Austramax Piston Assembly. The square seal in Group D is a modern alloy Tilley cock/NRV seal (x246b). In group A, if it is a Coleman generator you might find a number or letter on the actual jet. Group B - the larger brass bit might be a driver for tightening needles ? I agree with Sedgeman - Chinese. The red washer may be for the fuel cap ?. The brass bit in F looks like it belongs in E. Small o-rings often from Cock/prickers eccentrics. Are the thicker black bits graphite packers for an Austramax eccentric ? Maybe the smaller o-ring as well ?
