I finally got my old Whisperlite stove working after a guy at the trailhead gave me one tip
I was at the trailhead for the Enchantments last fall, trying to get my stove to light before a cold night. This older guy saw me struggling and walked over. He just said, 'Try pumping it 30 times, then wait a full minute before you light it.' I did exactly that, and it fired right up on the first try. Has anyone else had a simple trick save a piece of gear like that?

Pumping it 30 times sounds like a lot for one simple trick.

My buddy tried that trick last week, totally messed up his bike tire. Had to walk it home three miles.

Yeah that's way too much air for a bike tire.
