fantastic service
I ordered 2 valve stem packing and they were back ordered for forever. (pandemic related) But this company emailed me every month to give me an update. (they didn't just forget me) When i did receive my item, they had sent me 24 of them. I think this company is fantastic.

Revived my old Coleman 424.
Ordered this little part from a Chinese company, after 61 days and several emails they still hadn't replied to even confirm despatch (had taken the money via Paypal though!) - reordered through yourselves and the part was received in N Ireland in 10 days, fitted in 10 minutes and the old 424 is back to life and ready for work. Well done.

Disassembled the lantern to include valve assembly and the safety check valve. Cleaned the valve stem with a brass bristle wire brush. Installed the valve stem packing verifying fit and ease of operation of the valve. Installed new check valve and air stem and installed new pump plunger. Once the new parts were installed, pressure checked the system and tightened the valve stem assembly in small increments until the valve stem no longer leaked. Reassembled the lantern and tested the operation. Lantern is operating like new and will have many years of use again.

Fueled up the lantern noticed it was leaking around the valve stem.
After ordering the parts I took the stem apart cleaning it up and installed the packing.
I looked inside the tank and saw a lot of rust an debris so I put a lot of bbs in the tank and rolled it round and round an up and down for a while.
Dumped the bbs and fuel out and put a air nozzle in and blew out the tank.
Put fuel back in and put new mantles on and fired it up.
Works like new! 1976 model 220c.

Coleman stove would not hold pressure because of significant leak at flame control knob. Knob/shaft was stuck and would not turn.

Time
Less than 15 minutes
Tools Used
Screwdriver, Wrench Set, sharp knife to remove remains of failed packing.
Parts Used
1. Disassembled the flame control assembly by removing the knob (small screw in center of knob).
2. Remove bass fitting containing valve stem packing from shaft.
3, Thoroughly scrape remnants of old packing from inside of fitting.
4. Scrap remnants of packing from control knob shaft. Polish shaft with sandpaper. 220 grit will do.
5. Insert new valve stem packing into fitting.
6. Replace fitting on shaft to engage threads and tighten, turning shaft to ensure a smooth fit. Tightening intentionally crushes the graphite packing to create a seal, but do not tighten more than necessary.
