During test firing burner shown up in a completely different way than before, now it was bloody draft in the stove. But do not think the problems were over for it, everything was going really out of control, we actually almost completely melt the burner.

We learned something new "Burn Back" Jeff said .... A new phenomenon had appeared, the flames were no longer above the burner plate but walked quite uncontrollably into the space under the burner with horrific consequences. It was so hot that the bottom plate on the burner melted before we could stop the fire.
Luckily Jeff knew the advice, "You must produce scattering plates", he wrote, and so he attached a few pictures with examples of how those can look.

Here we see the plates to better distribute petrol fumes and a new bottom plate to the burner.

Vid proveldning visade brännaren upp sig på ett helt annat sätt än tidigare, nu var det banne mig drag i spisen. Men tro nu inte att problemen var över för det, allt höll på att gå riktigt över styr, vi höll faktiskt på att helt kläcka brännaren. 
Vi fick lära oss något nytt ”Burn Back” sade Jeff…. Ett nytt fenomen hade uppenbarat sig, lågorna höll sig inte längre ovanför brännartallriken utan vandrade helt okontrollerbart ner i utrymmet under brännaren med fasansfulla följder. Det blev så varmt att själva bottenplåten på brännaren kläcktes innan vi han stoppa branden. 
Som tur var visste Jeff på råd, ”Ni måste tillverka spridningsplåtar” skrev han och så bifogade han några bilder med exempel på hur sådana kan se ut. 

Här syns plåtarna för att bättre sprida bensinångorna samt en ny bottenplåt till brännaren.

There is a certain satisfaction in making progress, right?
------------------------------
Det finns en viss tillfredställelse i att göra framsteg, eller hur?
