Re: [at-l] Whisperlite

[WHHAWKINS@aol.com]

I have seen some do this. Every time it was an operator head space problem. 
They put the wind screen around both the fuel bottle and the stove. This can 
cause the melting of rubber O rings.
ME, I use a XGK.

 although i do not own a whisper lite, i did have one "blow up" on a friend. 
 the rubber o ring between the pump and fuel bottle melted just enough to 
 send pressurized fuel all over the place. >>
