My lighter issues
 

Ok WTF? None of my lighters will keep fuel for more than a day, and this is after bleeding them out and refilling them....what the heck am I doing wrong?

I got nice 3 flame lighter with a punch in the bottom that I absolutely love (because of the punch I won't lie)only cost $11 & two Ronson's from Mac and Eric that I really like too, but if I can't keep fuel in them what's the point?

I use Ronson fuel too, I know it's not the best, but it should be ok right?

I need help here people It's really starting to irritate me and I am not enjoying my smokes because I am in fear of losing all my fuel and have to refill.

i have a few ronsons and believe it or not they would give me issues when using the ronson fuel. i bought a bottle of xikar fuel at the b&m and refilled them and have had zero issues. this also hold true to my other lighters....

Get yourself a Colibri :tu

Re: My lighter issues
 

Get Vector, Xikar or Lucienne butane. Everything will go much smoother.

Re: My lighter issues
 

Fuel is the key...STOP using that Ronson fuel. Get you a couple cans of Vector (CI has them two cans for $ 12.95). :2

Re: My lighter issues
 

Yes, gotta get good fuel! I had all these same issues!

Re: My lighter issues
 

I got the vector fuel.. Way better. I have a vector 2 flame lighter bought from my B&M, Crap.. always sending it in for repairs.

I was gifted a Ronson.. Filled it with Vector fuel.. Wonders!!!!

Re: My lighter issues
 

Very cool! Thanks one and all! Sorry for being such a noob, I know how to fill a lighter and for it to be refilled daily is recockulous.....i just knew there had to be something wrong and I love all my lighters and I shouldn't need to replaced yet.

Thanks again everyone.

Re: My lighter issues
 

If it is a noob issue, then I am guilty too. I have been having the same exact issue as you. Thanks for posting this. The answers are a big help.

Re: My lighter issues
 

Did you just use the word "recockulous"?:r

Re: My lighter issues
 

BAHAHAHAHAHA I love that you used that word. I use it daily in conversation and people don't even notice it. I have a few other I will have to throw in here. :banger-(P:D:tu:=:

Re: My lighter issues
 

Yep I always say reCOCKulous :ss

Re: My lighter issues
 

I used it that way too.

Re: My lighter issues
 

Off to the B&M to get me some fuel.

Re: My lighter issues
 

3 flame lighters use a lot of fuel. If you smoke alot, I could see refilling daily. After our herf at WyGuy's, my dual flame was almost empty.

Re: My lighter issues
 

I see your point, but I only smoke one a day and on the weekends MAYBE 2-3, so only smoking 1 a day I shouldn't have to refill daily right?

Here is what I bought, and I just refilled all my lighters and guess what? They didn't light, so I tried it again and now they light.....weird man, I think I need someone to show me how to do this.
