Scorch torch diagram4/25/2023 I can buy a new lighter or fix it by replacing the piezo ignition. Lots of times the piezo igniter is defective It will no longer "click" and or will not spark. The piezo will wear out from use and it's plunger will not have anything to strike. I find the number one (1) problem with torch lighters is the piezoelectric igniter no longer creates a spark. This is my 4 year-old Scorch Torch Gabón lighter. This video was created in Corel VideoStudio Ultimate 2018. Looking for a new torch? Here is my Top 10 Butane Torch list.This video will show how to teardown the Scorch torch and how to replace the piezo igniter when it no longer works. General care in looking after portable tools such as keeping them clean and in good order will also help to ensure the longevity of your torch. Filling a butane torch can generally be accomplished quickly and using the best quality butane will always help your torch to function at its optimal level. Conclusionįixing your torch is not something which should concern you unduly because the most likely scenario for it not working will be because you need to fill the torch with quality butane gas. This may dislodge any foreign matter that is causing the suboptimal performance. One way to clean out the nozzle is to shoot compressed air into the nozzle area where the gas exits the torch. To fix your torch, you will need to turn the torch off and remove the offending particle(s) of solder. What can occasionally happen though is if you are using the torch for soldering, a tiny piece of solder may become lodged and stuck in the nozzle. Under normal circumstances, the nozzle shouldn’t become clogged because butane is a ‘clean’ fuel and does not produce soot to clog the nozzle. If this doesn’t help, you could consider the warranty options on the torch and seek a replacement because it may be that the ignition is faulty. You can turn the gas output all the way up then turn it back after the gas is ignited. The first is to try and regulate the flow of gas because it may be too low for optimal ignition. There will always be exceptions though and if your torch won’t ignite, you have a couple of options with regard to fixing it. ![]() Ignition Systemsīutane torches these days are generally equipped with instant electronic ignition systems and these have a reputation for being reliable technology. One of the symptoms of lower grade fuel is flickering or sputtering of the flame, this symptom can also be caused by air in the fuel cell which can be resolved by removing the air. Using the incorrect type, or low quality can often be the reason for your torch not operating correctly, so it’s always a good idea to check for any recommendations from the manufacturer with regard to the specific type of butane they recommend for your particular torch or lighter. If your butane torch or lighter stops working, you should also make sure you are using the correct grade and brand of butane. Always Use Manufacturer Recommended Butane ![]() These portable torches are surprisingly durable and if you are capable of filling the torch, you will likely experience no other issues in terms of keeping it maintained. Anyone who uses a butane torch regularly will probably realize that short of a total malfunction with any of its working parts, a butane torch generally only requires filling with a new butane to ensure its ongoing operation.
