The Swedish SVEA stoves have a tank with a filler and pump, and the burner is screwed into a fitting in a dimple on the top. The wizardry of lighting a SVEA involves an eyedropper squirt of raw fuel into the dimple, lighting it on fire, and warming the generator and burner. There is always a lot of flame, smoke and soot, but the fuel heats enough to operate the burner. And, make sure the filler cap is secure. Best done by someone who has not been drinking, or in very cold temperatures.
