Yes, Zippo lighter fluid does contain naphtha as the primary ingredient. It is a petroleum-based solvent that helps the fuel ignite easily and burn consistently in Zippo lighters.
To fix the wick in a Zippo lighter, you will need to first empty the fuel from the lighter. Then, use a small pair of tweezers to pull the old wick out from the bottom, trim it using scissors, and insert a new one. Be sure to adjust the wick to the desired length before refueling the lighter.
It depends on personal preference and what you prioritize in a lighter. The standard Zippo insert uses lighter fluid and offers the classic Zippo flame, along with the distinctive smell and sound. On the other hand, a butane Thunderbird insert provides a more efficient and adjustable flame, along with the convenience of refillable butane. Ultimately, it comes down to what features and qualities you value in a lighter.
If your Zippo is sparking but not burning, it could be due to inadequate fuel, clogged wick, or a faulty flint. Try refilling the lighter with quality fuel, adjusting the wick to ensure it's not too low or too high, and replacing the flint if necessary. If the issue persists, consider contacting Zippo customer service for further assistance.

Absolutely not, you should only use Zippo Lighter fluid. If you're in a pinch, Ronson lighter fluid works too.
Who cares? Ronsonal works just as well in a Zippo lighter as Zippo fuel does.

Zippo lighter fluid. But any good naptha based fluid will work well.
Most smoke shops, drugstores, and some grocery stores will carry some variety of lighter fluid. Despite what Zippo tells you, the other brands of lighter fluid (i.e. Ronson) work just fine and will not cause your Zippo to spontaneously combust.
