ABSTRACT:
A safety device for preventing uncontrolled burning in wick-fed liquid fuel burners employs a vapor closure system that contains vapors present around the removable tank (60). Also, a tank block mechanism is provided to prevent the reseating of the removable tank (60) into the fuel chamber (40) to its normal position when excess fuel is present in the fuel chamber.
