I fixed my "Woodbridge NJ" model Windlite. No more leaks. The problem with the Windlites is it's almost impossible to mount the rubber on the end of the rod.
The Calico disposable lighter has a tube that's easy to mount the rubber tip to. Fortunately the lower end of the Calico tube, where the rubber is, has the same diameter as the rod in the "Woodbridge" Windlite. So I used the Calico tube in the Windlite.
The upper portion of the Calico tube has a bigger diameter but I found I could turn it down with a makeshift lathe. I put the lower end of the tube in a drill chuck. I had to tighten it carefully so the end wouldn't be crushed. I mounted a file in a small vise, held the drill in my hands, and ground the tube down. If I had a way to mount the drill, I could have done it that way, by holding the file in my hand.
High precision is not required here. It's only necessary that the upper part of the tube passes easily through the adjusting nut.
The Calico tube is shorter than the Windlite rod. I expected I would have to extend it, but I didn't need to.
The Calico tube can't be used in my "int' nat'l pat's" model because that rod has a smaller diameter.
