Where do you buy your paraffin broadgage?
Z.
For a lamp or unflued heater, paraffin should be grade C1, low sulphur.
The slightly cheaper C2 grade contains more sulphur and smells bad when burnt, except in an emergency it should only be used in appliances with a flue such as a central heating boiler or an oil burning Rayburn.
Pre pack paraffin should be C1 the stuff delivered in bulk by tanker might be either C1 or C2.
In an emergency diesel fuel may be used instead, or even jet fuel, correctly called aviation kerosene.
Never under any circumstances use petrol, Coleman fuel, or aviation petrol/avgas in an appliance intended for paraffin.
