Ok, today i went in search of a burner. Went to BCF as per the other thread on here, but they had sold out of the mega burners or whatever they were.
Headed down to Giganis, and they had italian spiral burners pretty cheap. No reg attached, but there were 2 types of regs hanging up nearby- as far as i could see they looked pretty similar, except one was adjustable. So i got the adjustable one.
Just fired it up to suss it out, and i've got issues. Not sure if the gear i bought is faulty, or (more likely) i dont have the right Reg for the burner...
I turn the gas bottle on low, reg adjusted to low, and the handle on the burner on low. Lights ok (not super easy though). The jets dont seem to all burn at the same time, and usually there are one or 2 patches where there's no flame. Then, when i crank it up, it flickers and goes out. I've tried as many combinations of adjustments between the 3 variables (knob on burner, knob on reg and knob on gas bottle), and i just cant get it to burn properly. So i figure it might be a pressure issue? Unfortunately i couldnt get any photos in action, but heres the burner and reg.
I have no idea about this stuff, and the instructions for the burner were in Italian... No instructions on the reg... If any one could point me in the right direction that would be sweet.
Cheers,
Stef
