Spray Gun Lighters Common Problems And Troubleshooting Methods

　　FAQ 1

　　Flush lighters spray open flames during use:

　　Generally, it is caused by the valve opening too much when the gas is sufficient, and it can be solved by closing the valve small (generally adjust the "+" flame at the gas filling port of the lighter and "-" small flame);

　　Another situation is that the gas just added to the spray gun lighters or the internal pressure of the gas caused by the sloshing during transportation will also cause the open flame to be sprayed at the beginning of use.

　　FAQ 2

　　There is gas coming out of the fire outlet but the fire cannot be started:

　　After pressing the switch, there is gas coming out of the flame outlet, but it cannot be ignited. At this time, close the valve (the small lighter does not need to close the valve) and light it in a slightly darker environment to see if there is any spark at the flame outlet (keep away from the eyes when looking at it) One point), if there is no spark, please refer to "Frequently Asked Questions 15". If there is a spark and the spark hits the outer edge of the vent, use a small screwdriver or tweezers to adjust the lead head so that the spark hits the metal post of the vent. up.

　　FAQ 3

　　After adding gas, the flame fluctuates or becomes smaller:

　　After adding gas, the flame becomes large and small, which is generally the cause of the gas. It can be solved by replacing the gas with a high ignition point, high pressure, high pressure, and fewer impurities.

　　FAQ 4

　　The flame of the straight flushing machine becomes soft:

　　Portable small direct-flush lighters appear to go straight to the flame and become soft after use. Generally, the surface of the metal pagoda at the fire outlet is dirty and clogged. solved. Isn't it a little artifact?

　　FAQ 5

　　It goes out after a while after ignition:

　　There are two situations in which the fire will go out after a while:

　　One is that the flame is extinguished when the valve is opened too much. The characteristic of opening the valve too much is that the flame is relatively long, and it will be extinguished after a short while. In this case, the valve can be used normally after closing the valve.

　　Another situation is that the gas is about to be exhausted, and the flame is relatively large and quickly decreases until it is extinguished. At this time, add gas to the love machine and put it aside for a while before it can be used.

　　FAQ 6

　　Just a flash and it goes out:

　　There are three situations in which the ignition flashes and then goes out, and the ignition cannot be normally divided into three situations:

　　The first is that the gas is about to be exhausted, and it needs to be replenished before use.

　　The second type is the gas that has just been added and the valve is opened very large. When the ignition is turned on, it flashes and blows out. At this time, it can be solved by properly closing the valve.

　　The third situation is that if the valve is opened too small, it will flash and then go out. At this time, it can be solved by opening the valve slightly.

　　FAQ 7

　　Flames continue to burn after shutdown:

　　There are generally four situations in which the flame continues to burn after closing.

　　The first case is a pen-type welding torch. Because the ignition switch is in the middle part, after the ignition switch is turned off, the gas from the switch to the nozzle will continue to burn for a while before slowly extinguishing. This phenomenon is normal.

　　The second situation is that the flame gradually becomes smaller but continues to burn for a long time. This situation is caused by the low ignition point and low purity of the gas used, which can be solved by using high-quality gas with a high ignition point.

　　The third situation is that the adjustment of the large flame control valve is too large. This kind of situation usually occurs in the models where the ignition and the flame control valve are separated and independent. The solution is to close the valve to the proper position.

　　The fourth situation: when the ambient temperature is low, there will also be a phenomenon of slow flameout, which will disappear by itself after the ambient temperature rises

　　FAQ 8

　　After the lighter is inflated, the filling port leaks:

　　After inflating, the air leakage at the air inlet is mostly due to the incorrect air filling method, resulting in false air leakage caused by the lighter inlet mouth not fully rebounding to its original position. In this case, use small tweezers to gently pull out the air inlet mouth alright. The correct way to inflate is to shake the gas, then the gas nozzle of the lighter faces upwards, and the gas cylinder nozzle faces down to inflate. False leaks will occur.

　　FAQ 9

　　The lighter is very cold and difficult to ignite after refilling:

　　After refueling the machine, the fuselage is very cold, and it is difficult to ignite. This is the problem that some novice players will encounter when refueling for the first time. This is a normal physical phenomenon. The butane gas of the lighter is under pressure. The liquid is added to the gas storage tank of the lighter, and when the pressure drops suddenly, it evaporates quickly and takes away a lot of heat, so that the fuselage is cold. Because the temperature is low, it can be used normally after a few minutes of refilling.

　　FAQ 10

　　It is difficult or impossible to start the fire in the high altitude area of the plateau:

　　Due to the low air concentration and low oxygen content at high altitudes, it is difficult or impossible to shoot. This is due to natural conditions. You can try to use flint grinding wheel lighters and kerosene lighters. If you go to altitudes higher than 2800 meters, it is best to bring matches for backup.

　　Generally, it is more difficult to start a fire above 1500 meters above sea level than below 1500 meters.

　　There is a method you can try, that is, try to turn down the valve of the lighter. If it is turned down to a certain level, it may be possible to ignite. Some netizens reported that a donkey friend once tried it with a flint gas lighter at Tanggula Pass, and had the opportunity to ignite.

　　FAQ 11

　　There is no spark at the fire outlet when lighting:

　　If there is no spark at the flame outlet when lighting if it is a pen-type spray gun lighters or a large lighter, you can try to use a small screwdriver or tweezers to press the ignition lead towards the lighter body, and then test the ignition. There is no use for sparks, so we can only consider replacing the ignition electronics. Replacing the electronics is relatively troublesome and requires a certain amount of hands-on and maintenance skills, so I won’t elaborate here.
