    If all else fails read the directions. Lol. Got my old peak 1 out this morning and made a cup of coffee. I done the same thing. When you go awhile without using one you forget about the second lever. I had to find my glasses and read before I could have my morning coffee. Not good. Lol.

    5 bucks is a great deal. I still have a couple of those. Funny at that time they were concidered light weight camp stoves but they sure are reliable. I sent Native Tearz one a couple years ago when she though she was facing living of grid.

    • @shovelhead8
      @shovelhead8  5 лет назад

      I remember you sending it to her.. Dee was pretty pleased.. She is starting to make videos again.. One thing they have is more power than any other kind of stove, and a lot better cold weather performance. I have 2 of these now, and two M1950s.. plus some 2 burner stoves.

    • @shovelhead8
      @shovelhead8  5 лет назад +2

      Shovelhead is a Harley motorcycle from 1966 to about 1986. "8" because "shovelhead" was already taken.. i was in a hurry to make a name many years ago and it was the best i could do at the time. Gas was a little old and there was not really enough in it to make the stove start easy. And operator error. Maybe i should use the excuse that "shovelhead8" comes from being struck in the head with a shovel 8 times.. Thank you for watching and commenting, Calvin
