  • Hello there,

    Won't light? Refill the lighter. Fuel has gone.

    Longer wick? Pull more out.

    Later,

  • as you have sparks and no flame, it needs refilling

    the fuel has evaporated, or been used

    fill it, and leave the top off for a few minutes or fumes will build up in the lid, and ignite the first time you light it after refilling

  • Hi Gururaj!

    We apologize you are experiencing difficulty with your Zippo Windproof product. Lighter fluid evaporates within 2-3 days, because of this (and shipping regulations) we are unable to ship products pre-filled. We are unsure why your Zippo Windproof lighter had a fuel smell to it. We recommend sending it to our facility for a free repair. For further information, please visit our Repair page.
