Can I use something besides lighter fluid to fill up and light my Zippo personalized lighter? Never use anything besides lighter fluid in custom Zippo lighters, anything else won't work properly and you risk damaging your engraved lighters. In fact, Zippo recommends that you only use Zippo brand lighter fluid in your personalized lighters.
I just received my Zippo and it is not lighting, what is wrong with it? Zippos are shipped without fluid so you'll need to fill it up with Zippo lighter fluid. If you've done this and your personalized Zippo is still not lighting, you most likely have not filled it with enough fluid. The first time you fill up your standard or custom lighters, make sure they are filled all the way up to the top, to the point where you can see the fluid.
This insures that the wick on the custom Zippo lighter will draw the fluid. Once you've done this once, you should be good to go on future fillings for your engraved lighters. Where can I buy lighter fluid for my custom lighters? Most convenience stores and supermarkets will carry lighter fluid.
If you're lucky enough to have a cigar or tobacco store near you, they will definitely carry it as well. Finally, big box stores like Wal-Mart will usually stock lighter fluid that can be used in your engraved Zippo lighters.
