Bottled Gas (Camping Gaz) valve replacement
I've got a few of these:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...426_170600.jpg They're for outdoor gas lanterns, but as you'll notice the injectors all clogged up. So I tried to dismantle one, hence: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...426_170747.jpg My next question, which you can probably see coming, is... Are these generic parts (The valve assembly)? Any idea where I could get some from? (I've tried Google and Ebay, but I'm drawing a blank.) Thanks & regards. Bob |

Bob The part that has broken off looks like a metering jet to me - hence the number stamped on it and I would expect the whole device to be bespoke to Camping Gaz and the jet to be specific to the lanterns. |

YesCalor ones have different regulators due to the different gas.

The OPs device looks as if it connects directly onto a canister of gas, thus will be high pressure rather than post a regulator. It also looks rather old. A new lantern head, complete, is less than £20. Depends how many canisters of gas and what connection method they use (piecerable or CLIC) the OP has in stock. It might be getting hard to find a new piecerable head these days, I think I bought one about 3 or 4 years ago when I inherited about 1/2 dozen piecrable cannisters. -- Cheers Dave. |
