That's the ticket. Thanks, bud!

THANK YOU!!!

Thank you so much for the video! I was very excited to get the insert and so disappointed when it didn’t work! But you got me up and running in no time. Thank you so much.

You were right... its a piece of trash. I bought one and i have no intention of repairing it. I threw it away as it was junk! Bck in the day, there weren't too many options available to light a cigarette or cigar or pipe. Matches were readily available anywhere. I only remember Zippo and Ronson. It was "cool " to have a Zippo. There were no Bic disposable lighters. I have some Bic's coming in this week and i will either be happy with them as they are very dependable, or i'm going back to basics...matches!

Can confirm, it worked! Thank you so much!

Thanks so much, I was ready to throw my piece of shit butane insert out, but this fixed it!

THANK YOU!!!!!!

Thank you. I had already ordered a new one before I found this. Works perfectly now.

Works, thank you so much.

Yep the brass governor ring was the reason why my double flame was not working. Videos like this are the reason why TH-cam was awesome.

Many Thanks!!!!

Thank you, this really works, bleeding the air made the biggest difference for me.

Thanks for the fix. Been disappointed for more than a year, at the point stopped using my Zippo Double torch insert, now works better, so thanks again to your fix!

It looks awfully complicated and totally unreliable. The "fixes" I suggest are: 1) Do not buy a chinese-made butane Zippo, buy an original made in Bradford USA wick Zippo, and 2) Whenever you are dismantling anything esp. teeny-weeny components ALWAYS USE A RECEPTACLE to temporarily store the parts lest you accidentally knock them irretrievably loosing them after already spending half the day on your knees looking for them around the floor with a magnifying glass.

Had the same problem and with your video fixed in a few minutes. Thank you, your a ............................... not-return-to-Amazon-gentleman

i got a brand new one, even with your video, several others and a few decent suggestions from various forums i STILL cant get this thing to light even give a consistent torch flame, i love zippo im a avid collector and a huge fan so i understand everyone giving this thing the benefit of the doubt and a million chances but lets face it, its a piece of shit, zippo makes a hell of a naptha lighter but all 3, the yellow flame and single and double barrel blue flame lighters are fucking junk... anyhow thanks for the video, cheers

Thank you. Worked for me 👊🏾

Thank you for this vid!

I followed your instructions. But it didn’t do the trick. Still unresponsive

Tried everything you say, 5 X still not working. Absolute waste of money, and real rubbish fit for nothing. Get it to light (sometimes) with the flame of a BIC lighter. You need a cheap lighter to light an expensive world renowned lighter. LOL

Thank you Pulp, I almost threw the POS away .

Me ayudó mucho la verdad, pude arreglar mi zippo

Yup, that totally fixed my butane zippo - thank you! It sucks to say, but I don’t know how people would’ve fixed this issue before the internet

Thought he had a zippo. Because theres nothing Chinese about them. All made in the us

Does this also work for the soft yellow flame butane insert? I have the same problem, but this model still has a flint and doesn't have the flame height adjust, the screw is to remove the flint on this one.

Seven words that make algorithms love You.

I've no idea where my previous comment went but perhaps someone didn't like my opinion. Firstly, thanks for showing the inner workings of the lighter and how to remove the metal and rubber 'limiter' things. Secondly, apart from learning how to fix things together, this is completely unnecessary for many who own this lighter insert. I've just nearly broken mine doing all this, all for the sake of learning how to do it! Maybe the cheap crappy Butane isn't good enough but I had to bleed the lighter and refill more than once. I was getting hissing and all sorts but then I realised I probably wasn't using the Butane lighter refill properly 😂. The last time I was much more forceful in the filling stage and it started working again .... albeit no matter how much to the + direction on the adjustment, I was not getting an 'obnoxiously huge' flame like you were getting ... I want an obnoxiously huge flame 😂

PULP!!! Thank you so much… You’re the bloody MAN!! 💯🫡🔥🔥🔥🔥 p.s. Subscribed 😎

Aaah.....Good to know. Thanks.

should i not be using the zippo butane? i keep trying this every 6 months and cant get the damn thing to work. starting to think its the fuel

Thanks bud!

I'm confused

you are a good man. thanks for posting this.

You just saved me from returning the insert. Thanks a million bro.

Nice. Fixed my issue as well. Im glad because i really like my Zippo.

Thank you

thank you so much .. your video still helps me after 3 years

Had one that lights fine outside of the case. Piezo shorts against metal! Put a small slip of paper to line the bottom of the case-reinsert the insert and it works great. Electrical path of piezo spark going towards case instead of butane. If you put the insert on piece of metal it stops working, pick it up in your hand it works.

Hey pulp, i had a double flame butane insert, that was not worked when recieved & after watching your video i able to fix it. But after a month & so it stopped working, So i again use the trick & the limiter pop out, lol took me 2 day's to find the limiter from my room, i refit it fill it but didn't start, I thought maybe the gas might be escaping, so i fill it & left for a day but forget it bcoz of work, and check after a week, the gas was there, so it's holding the gas not leaking or anything, The lighter spark every time, that means that ok too, but I didn't able to smell the gas, nor hear hissing sound when keep pressing the Ignition button. Can you please help me what to look for, why it's not working,

You’re the goat 🐐

Worked like a charm

Didn’t work for me . Mines light and goes out immediately

How come there is no video anywhere about how to replace the Piezo sparker? lol

funny blaming Chinese manufacturing but theses are made in Bedford Pennsylvania USA 😂😂

Tried this on my double! Had to slightly bend the igniter down a tiny bit too but now it is lighting first try! Thank you for making this video I was getting so fed up 👍🏻

Thank you, first for getting right to the fix, and secondly, thanks, you have me liking my zippo dual flame again.✌️

Thanks so much! I was hating the butane insert, but this fixed it!!

This worked, thank you

Mine never worked. Not worth the trouble. Junk unfortunately

Crack ! Thanks a lot. I was about to complain at the store
