the flame is constantly 6/8 inches high,, i cannot reduce the flame to the proper operating level,,
yellow flame syndrome ?
any one out there have any insights regarding this stove and the way that it is behaving??
thanks cheers

That sounds like what my BBQ does when the burner is worn out and is getting bigger holes in it.

yes,, my bbq does the flame trick,, i blasted the pocket rocket burner and the whole stove with high pressure air hose,, nothing,, the guy at wild rock outfitters in peterborough thinks he knows the problem, i am saddling up the palomino for a trip into town to have the stove looked at,,

My next guess is a bad seal with the fuel canister that is pulling air in with the fuel. Maybe a worn o-ring that can be replaced?

Curios, how old is the stove and how did you make out with it? Fixed or time to buy a new 1

sounds like a worn needle valve to me..

@ Rob. I’ve had the pocket rocket for 20 years, use it on every trip and no issues with it at all ( yet). It has cooked meals for 4 in the early years, currently mostly for 2, 3x a day.

That’s great. Wild rock is excellent and clearly MSR stands behind their products. Since I have the same stove, nice to know.

The threading on my pocket rocket is starting to go. I can still get it screwed on to a fuel cannister and once attached it works fine, but every time now it's a pain in the butt to screw it on successfully, and I lose fuel in the process when it's threading badly. Maybe I'll see if I can get mine replaced too...
