MSR Expedition Field Service Kit for Camping and Backpacking Stoves

The part i needed in kit was really needed, after awhile the brass part with hole will clog up to much n you need a new one cause it wont work to good after it clogs up to bad, i cleaned the clogged one real good a few times until i needed a new one, i am going to try again to clean it way better when i got time to use it as a back up, make sure you get the right one for your msr stove cuase there are different ones, this comes in real handy when you need to fix your stove when it dont work, if you are out camping n it breaks down there are good parts in here to fix it, i recommend downloading msr cleaning n fixing stove videos from youtube n keep them on your cell phone somewhere or a tablet on you so if it breaks down you can watch videos to be able to fix it if you can do it n it is fixable

Its a great kit to get your dragon fly going again.It has been ages since I've hit the trail (about 6 years actually) and my dragon fly has been in the closet for that long.So when I was testing gear before a trip and naturally could not get this to start, I ordered the maintenance kit. It comes with everything you need, minus new starter cloth. (which unless you're covering it in fuel every time you go to start it.. you should not really need to replace it often)The only reason I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that the replacement fuel filters are too large to snugly yet easily fit in the fuel line. I had to shave a little off the filter in order to be able to even start to force it in. Which was no problem since I was sitting at home BUT if I was on the trail... I would have been running it with out a fuel filter.. because I would have lost both of them from launching them across the room multiple times while trying to get it in the hole or shave it down.

I bought MSR's Dragonfly stove over 15 years ago because it was held out as a bomb-proof, multi-fuel stove that would last a lifetime if properly maintained. In my experience, those claims are true. But what about maintenance? Enter the Expedition Service Kit.MSR sells two maintenance kits for the Dragonfly: an Annual Service Kit and the expedition service kit. I purchased the Expedition Service Kit because it is a complete kits for every user-serviceable part on the Dragonfly and the newer-style pump. It contains replacements for every O-ring, a new pump seal cap, replacement burner spreader, shaker needle, two replacement fuel jets, new fuel lines, check valves, and much more.In addition to the Kit itself, a comprehensive set of instructions are included with specific diagrams and trouble-shooting tips. Finally, everything comes packaged in a lightweight, yet sturdy, plastic container.If you have invested in a MSR Dragonfly stove, spend a few extra dollars for the Expedition Service Kit. It's well-worth the marginal cost to know you can completely refurbish your stove and pump in the field if needed.

This is the comprehensive repair kit for your MSR Dragonfly stove and its fuel pump. You will find every o-ring and seal you can need for both pump and stove, even the sealing collar that fits the pump to the repair body. It even has two replacement jets for your stove (one for white gas, and similar, and one for heavier fuels). Included also are tools to disassemble your stove and pump, and even a spare flame spreader. All this comes in a small plastic box that clips shut and keeps things organized.I always try to pack as minimalist as I can but this is something I always include. MSR makes great gear and I've had both the Whisperlite and Dragonfly stoves and they've been very reliable. Still, a failed o-ring or other problem with your stove or pump out in the wild can be a real bummer. This repair kit keeps you covered. It's about the size of a small eyeglass case and weighs a few ounces. I'd say keep this with your Dragonfly stove at all times except for the shortest of backpacking trips where a faulty stove wouldn't totally ruin things.It also comes with a full set of instructions with exploded views of both stove and pump, as well as an o-ring sizing chart. Instructions are in English, Japanese, French, and German.I'd always like it if MSR products came cheaper, and this kit is another example. It's pro-grade stuff, however, like most things they make. This kit is no exception and I recommend it. The kit will also seem like a steal if you ever need it dozens of miles from nowhere, when you're cold, tired, and hungry and when that little o-ring on the fuel inlet decides to snap.

This kit has all the parts needed to keep the Dragonfly going for decades. It has all the parts needed to repair and maintain the stove. Accidents happen and all rubber seals eventually become brittle. I keep this kit in the Dragonfly's box I store in a closet. It will probably be 3 years before I need to start looking at replacing some of the seals. I should look at the annual maintenance kit from MSR so I can replace just the seals and not use the seals from this kit; which I consider more of a repair than maintenance kit. I'm going to inspect the seals annually, but I doubt they will need to be replaced each year.

An amazing, well designed and perfectly refined tool for rapidly, safely and efficiently heating water outdoors in all temperatures. No, it's not for baking a stream-side souffle, or making a mountain-top creme brulee, or some other such nonsense. It's a solid tool for a particular purpose. If your needs entail heating water during cold-weather climbing or self-contained backpacking trips, look no further. If you really only want to make s'mores in the backyard, keep shopping.

Everything you need. One star less due to the price. Really should be around 25 cad for everything you get.
