I liked when he burnt his asbestos hand, l didn't know you had to shake the can. The cans of anything under pressure when nearly empty, i heat gun it and more stuff comes out . Paint ,glue.
Bro, you just saved my lighter and my weekend. I was super bummed out because my husband fucked up my lighter and its my favorite one. Turns out the striker just needed to be bent back. Thanks, dude.
It’s a spark probe, striker would indicate it strikes something. These lighters use static electrical sparks generated by striking quarts rock. The click you hear when you press these igniters is a little hammer pin that slams into a piece of quarts and quarts is magic and will generate electricity when angered which is why we hit it with hammer pins.
You're the best. Watched a few other videos but this one I went with...and it worked! Saved me from angrily smashing a perfectly good lighter, unlike the previous one. Thank you for your service to the community.
MY DUDE. THANK YOU. This bloody brand new torch stopped igniting after one day of normal usage and this was literally my Hail Mary before I marched down to the store I bought it from. It would not light at all, and now it lights every. single. time.... subbed
I’ve watched two of your videos on troubleshooting and they were basically the same. My torch has spark, and butane; however, I can’t hear butane expelling to ignite. I purchased this lighter and used it probably a week. It ran out of butane and I’ve not been able to light it since. I know there is butane in the lighter, a when I press on the nipple, butane expels. I’ve even emptied the tank and refilled it. Still, no gas expelling. Thank you for the time you take in making these videos. Oh yeah! I have the swivel neck scorch torch. I saw the one I have in your other video. Again, thank you very much.
Hey there I think tube that suppose to connect fuel tank with upper part got misplaced and butan would exit it halfway through and thats reason you cant get flame where it should be and its look like your torch got on wierd fire.(fuel isnt come out of head and there is no fuel to use the spark) You should check that connector tube...cheers and good luck
Thank you for these tutorials.. all the way from Hawaii, this is highly informative. Simple. Short. Descriptive and detailed. We'll explained and outright high grade! Thank you!
Linda, theres no spark at all? i know you feel hopeless but do something to make him feel appreciated. Make him his favorite dish. You look like you cant cook, which is totally fine, order his favorite pizza. who doesnt like pizza!?!?
@@UndeadCandyit’s most likely because you need to readjust your flint or because your flint is missing. 10 times out of 10 that’s what my problem is when I have that issue.
Great video! After going through half a dozen jet lighters, your video helped me bring back all but one. Something else I discovered along the way: Sometimes the burners are just plain ole [dirty]. I clean them by applying the refill can directly to the top of the dirty burner and give it just a quick, "Tsst!", squirt. Let the thing sit a couple minutes before igniting again and viola! Worked great. The thing I was doing wrong (before now, that is) is overfilling so, Thank you for that!
THANK YOU! I HAVE A TORCH I HAVE HAD FOR OVER 3 YEARS I GOT OFF OF AMAZON IT JUST STOPPED WORKING I DIDNT KNOW WHAT TO DO! FOUND THIS VIDEO AND IT CAME BACK TO LIFE!! THANK YOU!!!!!
Dude, I've literally never have LIKED & SUBSCRIBED a video so quickly. I like this guy he has something very special about him and it's not even about the Touch Tips (although the steps and information were helpful) something about this guy I really like.
Omg thanku thanku thanku. Just got home with torch, read instructions very carefully lol Yep, filled it by holding it down wayyyy longer than 2 seconds 😮😊 I've just emptied it, striker is working, here we go again. Thanks so much Kaz from Oz ❤
very well said, addressed the issues questioned, describing the do's n dont's, and why! easy to follow and very knowledgeable. convincing by proving everything
Thank you so much it worked exactly right ! follow everything to the exact letter and your torch will be fixed !!! purge all fluid from torch! Make sure ignitor facing down towards strike plate. Shake can of butane and fill counting 1001- 100_ and thats it STOP!!! no more fluid! and it should work it did mine ,thanx again
The lids of most butane cans have 5 different attachments that you can pop out and stick on the nozzle to fit various torches that aren’t the basic size of the cans nozzle. What you’re describing happens to me when the specific butane brands nozzle doesn’t fit my torch.
Took me forever to figure this one out. Different brands of butane have different size tips or they fit differently. I always keep 2 different brands of butane. If you are getting cold gas spurting out onto your hands, grab a different can. It's the 1 and only thing that works correctly. U can try the adapter tips but they rarely work!
@TGR Supply Hey when I fill my new torch with fluid I noticed it spews out fluid from the valve would that happen to be because it didn't come with an o-ring? Or would the problem be something else?
I appreciate your video! for years iv been putting butane in wrong . my ignitor pin was straight up so i fixed that, but unfortunately i think my old newport zero is done. lol it no longer strikes to ignight , only gas!
Omg ! I been doing Everything Wtf wrong! 🙄🤦Lol . I been holding down the butane during refill for at least an Entire minute or two! And I been shaking the can! 🙄 ty for this info 😁
I have the same lighter in your demonstration. It’s my second one and actually ordered it online because I liked the first one so much. It goes from no flame to a tiny flame to a 6 inch flame and then completely out. I’ve drained it couple times not and no change. I have to tilt it sideways to get a flame which seems to always be a 2 to 4 inch flame when doing so. Any suggestions?
I have a small torch, Weller brand, model ML100, I haven't been able to use it since I bought it. It came without gas. After a while I charged the gas but the flame came on and then went out immediately. I don't know what the fault could be! The spark works and the spark sticks right where the gas comes out, but I haven't been able to fix it :(
my torch wont even spark and when i try to empty the butane nothing comes out. i fixed the flint like you said but it still doesn't even make a noise when i try to start it or empty it
Do you help with torch issues AFTER already doing all these? I have a jet flame torch that only produces a soft flame and it's driving me crazy!! Help??
My torch doesn't work anymore. I tried your method(and I've been automatically doing it way before i saw this video) so idk what's wrong. I even emptied whole tank and filled it again but still barely any flame and that's also very rarely.
finally someone who knows their shit. Great video. Very well spoken. Addressed the issue perfectly. Thats EXACTLY what I did. I overfilled it and blew out the igniter. So to confirm, if we blow that puss, i mean igniter out, the troubleshooting steps will fix a blown out igniter? seems crazy that a blown out igniter doesn't require a new part. My lighter still lights but only when i have the butane setting on the perfect setting. if the flame power is set too high or too low the flame will not ignite. I will go ahead and try your troubleshooting advice. if it doesnt work i will beat my girlfriend
Like 20 more times because genius never flipped the lighter upside down to properly bleed the tank lol There's a reason why this is important and it has to do with the density of the propellant vs the butane. Also if you're not doing this than you're always leaving some residual propellant in the tank which doesn't burn anywhere nearly as cleanly as butane which is also why ppl have probs with these lighters. Their tanks are full of propellant lol smh
@@SEJay-gj2cvI know. 🤦🏽♀️This guy was just one big mess. Who hired him? This is pure contribution to the stupidity of humanity. 😂 “Yes I am right, I saw it on RUclips from a professional who sells torches”
hold the lighter upside down, press the nozzle FIRMLY into the valve for just a second or two. If it's spraying it's because your lighter is already full or you're just not pressing it straight or hard enough to create a tight enough seal to prevent outgassing.
That means your butane bottle has the wrong size nipple for your torch. Butane bottles can have a different size nipple from another bottle and torches can have different size valves. Some butane bottles come with little attachments for the nipple so it can fit any sized valve but if you don't have a bottle that came with the different sized nipples you either need to go buy one like that OR you need to figure out whether the nipple is too big or too small for the valve and then buy a butane bottle with a different sized nipple based on what you found out about the size difference on your current bottle and torch valve.
Just FYI it’s NOT a flint. Flint is a rock that when struck with steel it causes a shower of sparks. What these utilize is a spark discharge from striking a quarts rock. Quarts, when struck generates electricity. That’s what this is. It’s basically a static discharge that is channeled via that probe to the conductive brass jet nozzle.
What I needed to know is if it was safe to depressurize the lighter's tank, before refilling it. I will continue to depressurize it all the way. Thanks.
Been searching forever…my fairly new scorchi lights great…BUT even all the way to low it shoots out like a flamethrower!!!! It’s crazy….i love the lighter and it wasn’t cheap but it is DANGEROUS TO USE

Dam you helped me a lot and probably saved me some real money over time. The money I've spent on them is a lot already. Thank you.

Great video fixed the problem. Was overfilled/over pressurized. Sondiko S400 12/18/24. Thanks Bob
He is wrong about the whole way pressurized tanks work. His advice violated known laws of physics and chemistry
@ After I held the trigger and released some butane the torch worked consistently and still working today.
Thanks a lot, got mine working again, I had to bend a bit the tip of the igniter, but now works great.
Omg thanku thanku thanku.

Best explanation ever. I was struggling so much. Thank you. I tried so many other videos
I don't know how many times I have read hold down the fluid for ten seconds, Thank you!
Don’t listen to them Lol

Thank you. It was the repositioning of the lighter stem for me
Bro you just saved my entire night
What do you know about triggering resonance in one of these torch lighter flames?
Any idea if you have no arc doesn’t make a sound. It does release gas when triggered.
Is there an 'optimal' distance between ignitor and steel plate surrounding the steel?
awesome my igniter was bent in to far . I have a torch blue and that thing was alway a work horse and is again now , thanks .
This actually worked! Thank you!
Man you remind me of my homie down in Los Angeles. Good shit!
U seem like u would b a good boss and I can learn alot
Literally subbed bc of this

How do you fix the Diplomat 5-Torch Table Lighter - Gun Metal
Gun Metal? It won't click?
The trigger isn't working on my bullet torch. I'm not able to unscrew it at the bottom because the screw is stripped. Is it repairable or trash?
I did everything and the butane still sprays out the bottle nossle blowing cold butane all over my hands and my torch still won't fill
Same here!!

You have to replace the igniter..eBay search "piezoelectric lighter igniter" and order you some.. usually get 10 for like 5 bucks.

Squirt butane forcefully downwards with normal tip into the lighter jets to clean them out. Do a few cycles, then try.

How to fi the flame? mine is blooming out 🤷♂️
What does blooming Out mean? Is it fluttering? If it is fluttering you may have overfilled it
Mine has no spark on the igniter is there a way to fix that?
A new igniter is only a couple bucks, all ya gotta do is buy a new lighter and rip out the igniter then jam it in to replace the broke one. TADA.
What happens if the sticker isn't stricking
You fixed the 5 torches in my buddies house
I thought you weren't supposed to shake the butane because of the build up of gases? I could be wrong. Should I be shaking my butane?

I’ve had mine for 2 years…nothings working, I just need a new one
If you ever feel like the butane and it doesn't have a place to create a gas it's just a raw liquid in the tank so none of it gets
