It sais its high quality butane
Chamber fan question.
Thats what I used to use before the starter fluid, however I have found that the starter fluid gave me more fire power and was more reliable. Its cost roughly the same as butane too. the best thing to do is get a few different fuels and work out which one you like and is most effective.

How you know and why u ask?
you can use lighter refil can i think.
I use a small refil can for Weller Gas Solderin Iron ( Gas Soldeerbout )
And put a modified Silicon straw spray nozzle on it. ( siliconen spray, en dan die type met zown dun rietje )
Works very good ! it cost 5,50 euro's for 75ml.
I really wanna build a propane metering system...
The point is I need to get a proper propane tank + adapter for it.
I cant find it in the stores over here...
Do you guys know some good websites selling that (shipping out of US) for a fair price? Or got some other suggestions?

I could not agree more, I use M.E.K. in my Minis and Butane in my larger combustions.mtronic wrote:Thats what I used to use before the starter fluid, however I have found that the starter fluid gave me more fire power and was more reliable.

It's all got to do with what works good in a particular gun.

Careful with MEK (methyl ethyl ketone) in a PVC gun. It will melt the PVC. Granted, the amount you use is very small but nonetheless some of the MEK will diffuse into the plastic.Scotty wrote:... I use M.E.K. in my Minis and Butane in my larger combustions.
IIRC, MEK is frequently listed on the cans of PVC primer and glue.

I only use it in non-PVC guns, i.e. aluminium and acetal.jimmy101 wrote:Careful with MEK (methyl ethyl ketone) in a PVC gun. It will melt the PVC.
