http://silentasylum.proboards31.com/...761712&start=0

anyway i've found gasoline makes the plastic pump lock up and impossible to pressurize the tank what so ever.. so before i go and rig up a new one. does anybody have fuel suggestions?

Try maybe pure alchohol?

Screw the flame thrower go with a molatov cocktail.

Wouldn't that be much more expensive than gas? I don't erally think anything common is going to give you the kind of burn you want other than gasoline.

i've done molatov cocktails..
Yes gas has good flameableity, but what it worth if the fuel eats up the gun..i've lost two supersoakers from this small problem..Its kinda annoying to try and get all the fuel you can out of one water gun into another before you send it the the big water park in the sky.

I wondered if that was the case. :D

It did kind of sound like a joke, but I would think it ought to work. (not that I am in any way condoning this!) :weird:

Just use damn gasoline. Have a fuel pump that shoots out sprays, attach a lighting device (sparker) at the end, and have a continous gas switch / pressurizer and it should work.

You could just use a regular propane tank, the pressure coming out of that would be enough, you shold have it run into a steel pipe which would be molded to the gas line running from it, then you'd have to install a valve on it, or just use the one from the tank.

it did travel back on me 3 times but it didnt go into the tank, i blew it out before it had a chance to do anything.
