Remember, gentle, slow but steady pressure and the brass jet will pop loose with minimal deformity to the brass jet.Īgain, many thanks for your conversion post. So I had to be extra careful getting the jet off. Even one of my donor's brass jet had damaged corners right out of the box. I believe the jets are over torqued at the factory. Most people use the Pre-Filled Disposable 1 lb Propane Tanks but there are also Refillable 1 lb Propane Tank Empty Canister types. When using a 7mm socket and wrench, make sure the socket stays firmly seated over the jet while applying slow, steady torque until it pops loose. In recent years torches operating off small, disposable LP gas cylinders containing liquefied propane, have widely replaced the conventional gasoline-type. One thing I noticed on both the original valve of the 270 and the donor valve from the Coleman Peak 1 is that the part number "06F125" is clearly shown on both valves.Ī bit of advice when removing the brass jet from either stove.

Lit both of my blast furnaces up and they came instantly to life. Followed your instructions carefully, including changing out the brass jet from the 270 to the new valve. ![]() Almost trashed them until I came across your post. So for several years they sat in my garage as paper weights. We enjoyed them for many years until we could no longer find the correct canisters that fitted the stoves. My wife and I have two of them we bought from REI over 20 years ago. Many thanks to you for your fantastic post on converting the Gaz Turbo 270.
