Refilling Information

If you are looking to functionalize this lighter, be aware that many vintage Scripto butane models require a specific nozzle or adapter to refill. Modern universal butane cans often come with a variety of plastic "nibs" or tips in the cap; users have noted that finding the correct size is essential as it may not have a standard modern fuel receptacle.
