[TowerTalk] BUTANE SOLDERING TORCH

Gentlemen;

One thing I was cautioned about with those torch based soldering irons 
was fuel contamination.

Not all fuels are clean enough to keep the valve, nozzle and associated 
plumbing working.

Had one torch fail, full of a jelly like substance, the dealer said that 
it was the fuel's fault.

The Master fuel which goes with the torch you're talking about is 
supposed to be the cleanest out there.

I buy it from Grainger... but it's not cheap.

Stan
