MSR Annual Stove Maintenance Kit

I am purchasing an MSR stove on February 21, 2024 (MSR WhisperLite International Combo Stove). I'm planning to cycle down South America. I'm not testing it, for fear of having problems at the airport because of gasoline smells. I am now in South America (Bolivia). I have just crossed the Uyuni desert, bivouacking in -10 C cold while eating biscuits. In fact, I've been trying to get this stove to work for a week and it doesn't work. No matter how hard I pump, there is no pressure in the bottle. Is the seal too old, is the pump not working? Even though I press the pump 40 or 60 times, there is no resistance (bottle two-thirds full). I manage to put a little gasoline in the cup, to ignite it, but since there is no pressure, it does not work, there is no power supply. essence. The irony is that I have the same stove I bought in 1981, it still works (I never changed anything on it)! I wanted to buy a new one!! What a mistake! I have to go through Tupiza (Bolivia), Villazon (Bolivia), San Salvador de Jujuy (Argentina), Salta (Argentina), San Miguel de Tucuman (Argentina), etc…. to Ushuaia. What can you do to help me? Should I buy a small stove and throw away the MSR? Or should I carry it on my little bike already overloaded to Ushuaïa for nothing, eating cold food during all my bivouacs (3 months of travel remaining)? It's an emergency. What do you offer me? I guess it's still under warranty. Thank you in advance for your help. You can see that I am speaking the truth; Youtube “Nomide lover”. I'm not yet at the videos on South America. They will start coming out in October. But there are shorts that prove I'm already on this road. Please accept, Madam, Sir, my sincere greetings. What can MSR do to help me. Thanks again. Urgent !!

The kit had the parts and instructions I needed to repair my stove.

The kit came on time, it had the parts I needed, and brought my stove back to operating as new.

maintenance ensures your stove lasts longer. im still using my 50 yr old msr stove w/ the rigid fuel line

The pleasure level of a backcountry trip will take an immediate nosedive if your stove does not work. Especially during dry times when fire is not an option. Keeping your MSR stove fit & ready is essential and all you need is the Annual Maintenance Kit. All the small parts, tools & washers are in one place. Withy Internet access you can follow detailed videos on YouTube that MSR has posted.

Everything I needed to rehab my XGK-II and old school WhisperLite. Thanks

I was able to restore my 30 year old, Whsiperlite International Stove Pump back to perfect working condition with this kit! Very happy. I have a lot of fond memories using that original stove, now it has new life.

Have not used yet but has everything I need for my Windburner Duo and based on secondhand stories and other testimonials, I won't be going into the backcountry without mine.
