Found this in our dumpster Sunday afternoon and remembered a few threads on here about repairing them by cleaning out the pilot hole and blowing out the lines. I had bought pipe cleaner and compressed air ready to get to work, to my surprise and pleasure it fired up on the 1st attempt! The knob is a bit finicky and the piezo lighter may be going out, but I usually keep a long barrel safety flame lighter in my pack anyway.

Dumpster was almost empty and I fished it out with an old 2 prong weeded hoe, using the prongs to snag the grate.Originally posted by Bureau2 View PostComment

Not bad for a “dumpster dive”
Good find! I once looked over and saw a bag of Unopened Winchester 12ga. Wads. I grabbed them and found the rest of it...a mec loader and a brick of WW shotshells primers, and 300 blue peters hulls. Best find I ever had!Comment
