How do you get dried up kerosene out of an antique lamp?
If you have an old fashioned wick type kerosene lamp, unscrew the top, pour in the kerosene- (half way is fine, it will burn for hours and hours), light the wick, and then put on the chimney. Adjust the wick down, so it stops smoking. The lamp should not smoke at all, if it does turn the wick down. Hope this helps. We light our house all the time with these!
What is a wick?
A wick is a twisted thread or cord used in a candle, oil lamp, or lighter to draw up liquid fuel for burning. It serves as the pathway for the fuel to travel up and vaporize, creating a flame.
Oil flows upward in the wick of a lantern because of the liquid property called what?
Oil flows up through a wick through capillary action. This property causes the surface of a liquid to rise above the rest of it when in contact with a solid. Essentially, it pulls itself up to a certain height.
What is the liquid property that allows oil to flow upward in the wick of a lantern?
Capillary action is the property that allows oil to flow upward in the wick of a lantern. This occurs due to the attraction between the liquid molecules and the surface of the wick, allowing the oil to move upwards against gravity.
Can diesel or biodiesel be burned in a kerosene space heater?
ANSWER:Normal diesel fuel should not be burned in a kerosene heater, because there are many more contaminants in it, such as sulfur. A 100% solution of Biodiesel will not work because it requires a much higher initial temperature (300F) to burn cleanly. Blends of these fuels with kerosene can be burned, but there may be problems with the fuel soaking up the wick properly in the case of Biodiesel, which can lead to wick burning and sooting. There may also be problems lighting and burning properly if the blend contains too much of the Biodiesel, as its flash point is higher than kerosene. Diesel/Biodiesel fuel can also be run in many forced air heaters along with kerosene.
Why a wick is not used in gas burners?
A wick is necessary in lamps that burn a liquid. The wick is a piece of cloth uses to soak in the liquid so the liquid works its way up (by capillary action) to supply it to the flame. Gas itself flows out of a burner and burns. I'm not sure that explanation is clear.

How does a sky lantern work?
A sky lantern is a small hot air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom where a small fire is lit. As the air inside the lantern heats up from the fire, it becomes lighter than the surrounding air and causes the lantern to float upwards. The lantern can stay airborne until the fire burns out or the hot air is exhausted.
