How to Fix a Clogged JJGeorge Grill Torch (Why Won't My Torch Ignite?)

What’s the Problem?

The most likely reason your JJGeorge Grill Torch won’t ignite is that something is blocking the flow of gas through the torch’s tube. This can happen when small insects like spiders or dirt daubers crawl into the tube and make a nest, or when dirt or debris gets lodged inside.

But don’t worry—this can be fixed in just a few minutes!

Step-by-Step Guide to Fixing Your JJGeorge Torch

Follow these simple steps to clear the blockage and get your torch back to lighting up your grill in no time:

Check the Tube: The blockage is probably in the tube of the torch. This is the part that connects to the handle and guides the flame. Over time, small insects may crawl inside and cause a clog.
Remove the Screws: Look for two small screws near where the tube connects to the handle (pic above). These screws hold the tube in place. Use a screwdriver to carefully remove them. Don’t worry—this is super easy and only takes a minute.
Slide the Tube Off: Once the screws are out, you can slide the tube off the handle. When you do this, you should be able to see if there’s any dirt, debris, or even a little spider web blocking the tube.
Clean It Out: Here’s the fun part—just scrape out the gunk! You can use a small tool like a stick or a thin brush to clear out any webs, dirt, or insects. After you’ve scraped it out, give it a little shake and blow through the tube to make sure it's completely clean.
Check the Handle Side: Before putting the tube back, take a look at the handle side of the torch to make sure it’s clear too. Make sure that the (4) air intake holes are open and if everything looks good, you’re almost done!
Put It Back Together: Now that the tube is all cleaned out, slide it back onto the handle and secure it with the screws you removed earlier.
