There does seem to be a lot of problems with them! Mine if fitted on a sea going vessel, I have a separate tank to feed the stove. This is filled via the return pipe from the main engine so the fuel passes through three separate filters before going into the stove tank. Then I have a small filter between the tank and the stove, this is normally very clean when I check it. I am sure it can't be anything to major as the stove will burn but just one speed for all occasions. Hopefully we will get to the bottom of it soon.

Thank you for your reply Koukouvagia, The stove worked fine last winter then was shut off for the summer and has been nothing but trouble this winter. When I removed the float mechanism there seems to be plenty fuel flowing into the carburettor. I have took out the metering valve and cleaned it and stuck the corner of a bit of a paper into the narrow slit to make sure that is clear. In my mind the the fuel seems very slow to flow into the burn pot, sometimes I have to slide the needle in and out several times before any fuel appears at all. It has been lit now for a couple of days now albeit it only putting out a low heat but it has all warmed up a bit.

Thank you for the link Peter, I have read this and there is some fantastic info in there. Have already tried some of these without success so far.

Hi all, Just looking for some advice, I am having endless trouble with my refleks heater. The stove lights well every time I light it and burns with a nice blue flame. But it will only burn at a very low heat regardless of how much I turn it up. I have cleaned it out inside the burn pot, I have cleaned out the carburettor, I have removed the small pipe that goes from the bottom of the carburettor to the stove and cleaned it out. I have even renewed the pipework between the tank and the stove thinking it might be a fuel starvation problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated, many thanks David
