BUTANE FILLING PREMIUM BUTANE IS REQUIRED TO INSURE OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE Of YOUR LIGHTER! LIGHTERS REQUIRE THE CLEANEST BUTANE AVAILABLE AT A PRESSURE OF 45 PSI. RECOMMENDED PREMIUM BUTANE BRANDS ARE PACKAGED IN (10-13 oz.) CANS WITH A METAL FILL TIP NOZZLE. NON-PREMIUM BUTANE (CLIPPER, RONSON, SUN) AND BRANDS WITH PLASTIC FILL TIP NOZZLES ARE NOT RECOMMENDED FOR IGNITION LIGHTERS AS THEY MAY CAUSE INCONSISTENT IGNITION AND PERFORMANCE. # You may be inclined to shake the butane can before using. NEVER do this, even though some websites actually say you should. Shaking adds too much propellant to the fuel and can result in accidents. # Fill with lighter in upside down position. # Put nozzle tip directly on valve opening and press down firmly for 4-5 seconds. # Butane spray back may occur with some lighters when tank is full.
If the lighter is not equipped with a butane level window, use the following steps to ensure tank is full:
a. Hold lighter in upside down position.
b. Depress the filler valve with a small screwdriver. If liquid is expelled from the valve, stop immediately; the tank is filled to maximum capacity. # Warm the lighter in your hand for at least 30 seconds. Wait an additional 2 minutes before attempting to ignite the lighter. This allows enough time for excess butane to dissipate and the gas in the lighter to reach room temperature. # Burn things... ;)

∙ 16y ago== == == Try bleeding the butane tank on your lighter. Compressed air is usually used as a propellant for the butane gas. This may or may not work but it may be worth a try: just release some air from the fuel tank. To do this, turn your lighter upside down and use a small screwdriver (or some other small, metal device) to hold down the refill valve on your lighter and let some air escape. (Do this away from any people or flames).
== Hey there, I dont know what a dunhill lighter looks like and plus im a girl heh heh but I reckon IF it has a wick the wick needs replacing. U could probably use a Zippo wick. Im a proud owner of a zippo lol. Hope it works! Unless its one of those electric ones.... :oD

What Can you fill a butane lighter with?
you can fill a butane lighter with lot's of things but you only want to use butane or (only if you have an adjustable lighter) propane. some of my freinds tried Ethane and they could either get it to burn a lighter up or it wouldn't light so it's hard to balance if you use that. I PLAY WITH FIRE :)
How can one refill a Butane lighter?
There are a number of different steps to take when refilling a Butane lighter. First, shake the Butane gas can, then hold the lighter and the gas bottle upside down. After this, one should place the stem of the refill can into the bottom of the lighter and allow approximately 10 seconds for it to fill up with gas.

Why is butane gas a liquid in lighter but a gas in water?
The liquid butane in a lighter was compressed, and is under pressure. At normal temperatures, if released from the lighter it will change back to a gas. Extremely rapid evaporation.

How do you fix a lighter?
Fix a lighter? That is pretty vague! Get fluid into it... adjust the wick, put a new flint into the mechanism, or see if the cotton is bad. If it is a butane you should buy a new one, if it is a zippo then I can help but I need more info on the prob!

No. Lighter fluid is usually butane, a flammable substance known as a hydrocarbon with chemical formula C4H10. A spark ignites the butane, allowing the lighter to function.
