Hi all
The braided hose on my Bulin T4 has developed a leak at the stove end. It's a bit worrying to see it take flame and is also obviously costing me in gas. It appears to have threaded connections at either end so I'm guessing that it is replaceable but a google search hasn't turned up any results so far. Does anyone know if this is actually possible and where I might be able to get a replacement from?
Just for the record- I'm brewing up outside the bivvy for now!

Sounds a bit unsafe mate , probably a good idea to stop using it till fixed or you get a new one !

Yes mate, know what you re saying. It's just an emergency brew at the waters edge to get me thru todays session and then I'm done with it. It's not a massive flame round the hose tbf but you never know.

I'm finding lots of braided hoses, it's finding the correct one that's proving a problem. It might be just as well to get a new stove I guess

Go to the ebay, and use camping stove hose as your search term, new hoses for camping stoves will come up from around £6.50.

No problem.

I do confess to having a spare stove in case of issues.
While it doesn't come with me every trip, if I have to wait for a spare hose to arrive I do still have a stove I can use.

I managed to cause a couple of hoses to leak, a bit of wood, grass or something on the bottom of my pan as I was cooking, and a hot spark lands on the hose. Sometimes immediately terminal.

Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
