A Zippo brand lighter that produces sparks but no flames could have insufficient lighter fluid or a dirty flint wheel, or the lighter may require flint replacement or wick cleaning or replacement. The Zippo lighter may contain incorrect lighter fluid or be too cold to function properly.
Owners of Zippo brand lighters that are not working properly have the option to send them to the original manufacturer found at Zippo. Owners should check that the lighter fluid used is Zippo brand lighter fluid. Other lighter fluid brands can cause less than optimal function of the lighter. Zippo's genuine flints will keep your lighter working at optimum performance.
