zippo lighter wick
Monday, January 11th, 2010
does the wick on a zippo lighter ever need to be replaced?
and if so, how do you replace it?
Yes it does.
As the wick chars, the end needs to be trimmed, and the wick pulled through to the same height.
After awhile, it needs replacing.
A new wick will come with a wire wrapped around one end.
That end is fed in through the bottom (after removing cotton packing) and pulled up through the top.
Replace the cotton packing.
