    Two not quite normal issue :)
    1) How this miracle to fill
    2) does not imply any petrol
    I understand made on the principle of eternal matches, but there it is twisted, and here how?

    Wahler, tucked it underneath (but I did not feel in the flowability).

    Made not on the basis of eternal match, no. On a shoestring at the end of a conventional fuse, tuck it in the top hole and the strike sharply wheel, it lights up.

    No, wick "parked" in the lateral hole and just there is moistened with petrol.
