  1. I ended up draining the whole system, filter, regulator, and the pipe that connects the regulator to the heater. I did find a few spickles of black in the pipe, other than that I found nothing. Afterwards everything worked again as expected I have to say. So might have been water and/or air!
  2. Background I bought a new Refleks 66MW heater. This is the smallest heater which is wallmounted. Since I got it I had issues where I had insufficient fuel flow into the pot. Basicly, I could only keep the flame alive when using setting 6 - and then barely so. Tried all sorts of things, but ultimately had to send the heater back to Refleks (DK) who looked it over. They found nothing significant but did adjust the fuel screws on the regulator. I got it back and it was working like a charm. Setting 1 had become as expected, turning my 8m boat into subtropical temperatures in a matter of hours! The stove has been working perfectly for about one and a half weeks… untill two days ago. The issue We had a lot of wind over the weekend, which caused the flame to behave rather irregular. Didn’t pay much attention to it, but it may be significant as I now have a stove that does not work! By “not work” I mean that the flow of Diesel into the pot is insufficient to keep a normal flame going. This is irrespective of which setting I choose, as 1-6 doesn’t really appear to make a difference in the amount of diesel that reaches the chamber. Things to consider * This model does **not** allow one to open the regulator on the top (it is sealed shut) * The cleaning pin has of course been moved multiple times - it shows nothing. * I have not changed the setup (gravity fed with a filter in between) * I did put new diesel into the day tank (10 L) from a jerrycan which is kept outside. I’m unfortunately not sure if problems started after this, but it is possible. Does anyone have any idea what has caused this problem and how to solve it? Thanks for any help!
