Lighting the Svea 123 camp stove according to the old instructions. No alcohol, mess, complications.

I've noticed that in a lot of vids about the Svea 123, people are engaged in elaborate complications when lighting the stoves. Using alcohol, eyedroppers, syringes, straws, etc. to prime the stoves. Spilling fuel, handling hot stoves - putting the wind shield on AFTER the stove has been preheated, and all sorts of other bizarre ordeals. It doesn't have to be so complicated. In this video I light the stove according to the directions that were given in the 1950s, 60s, and 70s.
