How did you get any in the tank? It should evaporate in time.

Just give 'ol bottle a good squeeze! I have been trying to fill it up with butane, burn off the old stuff, then let it sit for a while, repeat. right now, when I can get it to light, it burns more like a chepo bic lighter than a butane/torch lighter.

Try filling it with butane, let sit upright awhile, then let the butane out through the filling valve. Hopefully this will purge it.

Anyone from the Boston area know where to get some of these? I tried two Rite-Aids, CVS, numerous convenient stores, and even a military apparel shop and no one had them. I am trying to avoid going online and paying 3x the amount in shipping that others are paying at wal mart.

I picked up a few at Rite-Aid last week in Quincy next to the the Shaws near Burgin Parkway.
