Finally got my old camp stove to stop leaking fuel
It's been dripping a little bit of white gas for years, and I was about to just buy a new one. I saw a random comment on a forum about replacing the leather pump cup with a specific O-ring from the hardware store, the #111 size. Tried it last weekend and it sealed up perfectly, no more mess in my gear bin. Has anyone else fixed an old stove this way, or is there a better part to use?

Honestly, I just learned you can fix those... I've been living with a greasy mess for way too long.

My buddy thought his stove fan was just loud and useless until a repair guy showed him the filter was basically a solid brick of old bacon fat.

Wait, but what if the grease is a feature, @the_rowan?
