The problem is not your wheel or flint or refueling it. Your wick has too much carbon and charred fuel on it and therefore isn't lighting right. I had this happen with mine a few months ago. Basically you should trim it about every 6 months to a year depending on how often you use it.

The wick should be changed every 1. I've had about 20 or so of these and once again starting to build my collection up. Open it, and either swoosh your hand by it, or just open the top, sort of flick it back and forth a little bit and then strike. You should have no problems then. And yes, if you let it sit, all the fuel will evaporate. Also, don't over-fill it. Just soak the cotton lightly and that is it. Putting more in won't make it last longer, it'll just give you nasty chemical burns when you put it in your pocket.

It burnnnnnnnsssss us! Very unpleasant. I had same the problem, pulled it apart and found the wick coiled at the top. Snaking it through the cotton seemed to work better. I think it might be overfilled. If you you are getting flame in the lid on subsequent lights after the first after a refill it's too full.

I thought that was normal, due to fumes build up -it's even mentioned on the manual. Had a busy day yesterday, so haven't tried the tips -and I haven't smoked since last Friday.

Granted I smoke quite a bit more than you, and it's the only lighter I use. My guess is the wick, too. Pull out the cotton wadding, straighten the wick, pull out a half an inch of wicking and cut it off, square with the shield. Repack the cotton, being sure the wick goes down to the bottom of the lighter.

Squirt in some fluid, close it up, let it set five or ten minutes. Should be working. Start quitting smoking now. Thanks for all the tips! I trimmed the wick and it worked, even though the cotton seemed dry to the touch -and on the second try! I've refilled it and let it set for a few moments. Question: once you refill it, does it matter if you leave it upside down, so the fluid flows faster up through the wick? The cotton should feel dry to the touch. Share It. Insert the inner lighter back into the shell and you're ready to light up.
