[Jewelry making - Article 00306] - [Orchid] Lighting the Meco Midget Torch

[Noel Yovovich]

    While we're talking about lighting torches... 

    I recently bought a Meco Midget to use with propane and oxy. It does
    a good job, but I have some problems. I have to open the pressure on
    the tanks to the absolute minimum possible, and likewise the torch,
    to be able to light it. Then, the pressure of the propane gradually
    creeps up, enlarging the flame and requiring that I turn it down
    (hard to do without turning it off) or add oxy. 

    Now, obviously this is not what is supposed to happen, but I don't
    know which part of the system is likely to be at fault. Can anyone
    help? 

Many thanks!
Noel
