Sounds like a clog. Spray your butane (or compressed air) down through the burner and I'll bet it will be fine.

good tip sir!!! I just tried that with 2 lighters that have been acting up and they both are working much better.

Bump for the great advice from Greg.

I revived a three year old Ronson that I had given up on. Works like new.

Thanks Greg
