xlr8tn Report post Posted August 21, 2014 I bought one of these alcohol burners to heat up my creasing tools. Am I supposed to open the second cap to vent? Burner lights up but then it starts seeping out everywhere and that sucker is tight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mlapaglia Report post Posted August 22, 2014 A few pictures would help. We need to know what it looks like to respond. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nuttish Report post Posted August 24, 2014 Pictures of your particular lamp would be helpful. Please be careful is fuel is leaking out of your lamp while it's lit! In general, a spirit lamp is like any other wicked lamp. The fuel is drawn up the wick by capillary action. There are no other vents or holes than the one the wick passes through and the wick should not completely occlude the opening it sites in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
