Danny, The stove on Touché hadn't been used in 10-15 years. It fired right up. Yours may just need cleaning.
The secret is to use a good, high quality sootless stove fuel. Don't believe what you might read about using alcohols bought at a big box store. Pay the extra dollar or two for dedicated stove fuel. I keep a small hand bicycle pump on board to pump the tank to 7-9 psi. I have original instruction manual for my Shipmate 3 burner with oven. The burners heat up happily. The oven is pathetic. Might make 275F on a hot day in July. The Admiral and I are both experienced campers so we're used to such stoves. Dennis C.
