Hello Keith,
You should spray heavy duty oven cleaner around the base of the gallery. Let it sit for 45 minutes and then rinse with hot water. If after a second application, it still will not turn off, then you
need to submerge the fuel tank in Metal Rescue or a 50/50 mixture of vinegar and water. It is possible it is frozen with rust.
I have a model 735 that I can't get the gallery out of. I know it screws out ccw but it is stuck. I have sprayed it with pb blast but still no luck. Any suggestions ? There isn't a tab on mine like
some I have seen. Thanks for any help..

Hi Jim,
No heaters were ever painted with Farm Scenes from the factory. Someone would have done this after the fact. In order to find the fuel tank, you'll need to hunt on Ebay. The fuels tanks are usually
found there for sale.
I have a model 750X Perfection Heater that is hand painted with a farm house and trees. Is this heater originally painted from the factory? Also, I just bought this heater from an auction and the
tank is missing. Can someone help me find where I can purchase a tank with wick for my heater? The link is a picture of the heater.

Hello Steve,
Are you sure it is a '760'? If you have a good photo, you can use the main contact form and then we can communicate that way. In general, all HEATERS in the series of 100, 200, 500, 600, 700, 800,
1500, 1600 and 1700 models and up used the Perfection 500 wick - everything but the 300 and 400 series heaters.]
