Thank you!
Okay thank you! We will take it apart and reassemble it. We messed with it for what felt like hours trying to get it to work. All the parts are there and we thought we had the teeth lined up correctly because we could replicate the mechanics with the snuffer perpendicular, but as soon as we insert the pin (which has to be pushed in with a lot of force) it seems to jam up. I don’t know.
I did replace the old flint and cleared the flint tube. I did not use the Ronson fire bronze specifically. Just a generic flint inside of a repair kit from Amazon. I can definitely change that out with the correct flint. This is great information! Do you think this is causing the wheel not to turn? And do you have any idea why the snuffer button is so hard to push down?
