I just ran out of fuel in my fuel station and this prompted the following question: if your Zippo runs out and your fuel canister is empty and the shop you drive into hasn't Zippo fuel, what will you do? ?

I'll use Ronson if i can't find zippo's. Really to me it's all the same.
But.......
I will only use Zippo Flints. Nothing less.

I know of about 3 or four shops around me that carries Zippo fuel so if one doesn't have it SOMEONE will.. and how do u carry fuel around WITH you? You don't actually carry the tin around do you? And it sure as he|| wouldn't be smart to keep some in your car..

i perfer zippo fluid because its not as strong smelling, but i did use ronsen for about a year and half because its all that walmart sells.
but i do like ronsen flints because they dont fall out of the holder and they are longer (although skinner)
i always keep a bic type ligter in the door of my car (out of direct heat) incase the zippo fails.

Whoa boy, I would stick away from the ronson flints if I were you Matt. They might be longer, but they get used up in half the time.
P.S. I guess Spanish just shut us all up. If ya keep one of those around, you have at least a week before you really run out!

i was thinking about using the analitycal balences at school to weigh the difference between a ronsen flint and zippo. they are sensitive 0.0000(+/-), i dont know what it would prove though. SF probably has one in his garage that he just happend to find "lying around." at his place of learning
