before you put the wick in you need to get a little bowl of Zippo fluid. Soak the wick in it for 5 minuets then allow it to dry then insert it into the zippo and then add zippo fluid to the lighter and set upsdie down for 5min then flip over and dry off top and use zippo. That simple. Your Friend David davidbtamplen@Yahoo.com

How do you install a ronson lighter wick?

To install a wick in a vintage Ronson lighter use the wire inserter that comes in every pack of ronson wicks. As per the instructions; use the inserter to insert the wick into the the hole where the wick goes. The bottom of the lighter cannot be taken off like that of a Zippo. I have a Vintage Ronson lighter collection and use some of the lighters regularly and had to replace some wicks. that is the only way to replace a wick. I do not think Ronson sells wicks with the inserter anynore. If you have a vintage Ronson lighter and need to replace the wick you need a vintage wick with the inserter. cheers

Yes, but I would use one of the long lighters. I just lit mine that way the other day. I just bought a new wick today and hopefully I can go back to using the button when I replace the wick. Not certain, though.


Can you use an axe spray can to fill your zippo lighter?

Used to light the wick, but does not absorb well. No, unless you use a buttload. Plus, its dangerous, as it can leak... as well as it smells awful... :P
