I am trying to locate a circa 1955 Zippo Lighter, USMC on front to replace the one my late husband carried for over 30 years and which was stolen.

Most likely. The law and "children" is designed to keep hazardous materials out of the hands of children. After 18, it is presumed that you will not do stupid stuff like try to blow up the outhouse with lighter fluid. It also presumes that it will prevent smoking in an indirect way. If you have a refillable lighter and you can't refill it, what use is it? Lighter fluid is a hazardous material because of its low flash point, so the law is most likely tied to the federal ones about hazardous materials.

usially 18, but depends how nice the shop keeper is, the £ shop do packs of 2000 filters and i can buy them at 16

No , fluid replacement must be with a liquid of equal density/viscosity .

When my dad was in the Navy, his friends used to use jet-fighter fuel to refill their Zippos, so I don't see why regular petrol should be any different.

Just be very careful if you use petrol - do it outdoors, wipe the lighter after filling and wash your hands before lighting, as petrol is extremely volatile!

They have fluid in them, you do not have to fill them with fluid yourself. Only when the lighter runs out of fluid.

Etsy has great stores that sale everything from engraved, to hand painted zippos for South Park and other shows!

You can try using a small tool like tweezers or needle-nose pliers to carefully extract the piece of flint from the tube. Alternatively, you can try tapping the lighter gently on a hard surface to dislodge the stuck flint. Be cautious not to damage the lighter while attempting to remove the stuck flint.

Not well, her leg has been giving her problems, her favorite dog is passing away my brother is an alcoholic. So things could be going better.

It depends on what temperature it is at, and how well sealed the container. The higher the temperature, and the more the container is open to outside air, the fast it will evaporate. Exactly how long it will take is very difficult to determine however!

The letter on the left indicates the month it was made (for instance A=January and B=February). The roman numeral or number on the right indicates the year it was made.

If your dryer didn't explode, try lighting your lighter.

If your lighter lights, then you have nothing to worry about.

If it doesn't go buy a new lighter.

If you can reach behind the lighter in place, you can do it there, if not the section holding the lighter will need to be removed. May just pull out, may have screws holding it. Once removed the back side of the lighter unscrews consider it the "nut" to the body of the lighter the "bolt" One plugin on the center, the positive side and usually a flat plug on the side of the body of the lighter for the ground.

9 out of 10 GI's in Vietnam smoked cigarettes (cigarettes were ISSUED in every "C" Ration Meal). Probably 5 out of those 10 men owned zippo cigarette lighters (the rest of us used matches, that also came in every "C" Ration Meal). The "zippo" cigarette lighters were also used to ignite the thatched roofs of people's homes (burning down villages).

The ZIP FASTENER was invented in Chicano in 1893 by Whitcomb Judson and in it early stage was more a hook-and-eye shoe fastener. Zip-fasteners did not come into general until the 1930s, when the zipper beat the button fly in the 1937, following the discovery that zippers made it easier for children to dress themselves. During that period they had campaigns praised zippers for promoting self-reliance in young. The first commercial production of zip-fasteners was when Whitcomb Judson started together with businessman Colonel Lewis Walker, the Universal Fastener Company to manufacture the new device. B.F.

Flint is a natural occurring stone in the calcedony family. It is a smooth stone and varies in color. To strike sparks from flint and steel you need high carbon steel. Stainless doesn't work. You strike the steel against the flint on top of which a piece of char cloth or other charred material is held. Punk wood can also work as can milkweed ovum, dried mullein leaves and finely sliced mullein pith. The spark actually comes from the steel. They are minute bits of molten metal from the steel. The char or other material catches the spark and begins to smoulder and is placed into a tinder bundle and is blown into flame. Some people refer to a ferrocerrium rod as flint. It isn't. Flint as I said above is a naturaly occurring stone. Flint, chert, jadite, nephrite, quartz and several other stones will also work.

Nothing really it all the same stuff they just want you to buy there own brand that's all...... i have a 1988 zippo i have had and i have used generic brands and it is still working fine

type2

Remove the zippo from the case and unscrew the spring for the flint hole. set the spring inside the zippo case along with the flint and the grab tweezers and remove the cotton filling. this will allow for a smoother pull later.grab your tweezers and pull the wick carefully to the brim on the where it lights then snip at an angle off the carbon piece. once that's done put the cotton in the opposite way we pulled it so the last piece you pulled goes in first and so on. add the last cotton piece then put the flint back in and add the flint spring back in. now you put it back inthe case and give it a light!
