How to light an old Tilley that has tank issues. It was originally made as a 'how to' for 'Er indoors to light up my old Tilly lamp when I wasn't there, I didn't intended to put it in the public part of you tube, but hey its had so many hits I've left it there, apart from references to fuel and stuff in sheds 'n wherever, the rest is more or less as intended. These old lamps bring back a bit of atmosphere to the great outdoors and are great to illuminate your barbecue when your trying to cook in the dark. They use just under 100 Mls of paraffin per hour and the tank holds a good 500 mls so one fill should last all evening. P.S these lamps were designed during the last century to run on paraffin and nothing else !!! They are basically a portable 'gas' lamp that runs on vaporised paraffin.
