Has anyone else done the UCO Candlelier conversion to oil lamps? I tested mine out last weekend and had some issues with soot and flame coming from vent holes. I have no experience with oil lamps, but thought I had it figured out.
It’s possible the yarn I used for wicking is no good, or wick ends aren’t cut right, or the wicks are too long. But I feel like they’re cut pretty short already, and not sure if those other things would cause the problem.
Anybody have ideas?
