Oil Lamp Question

The Witches Cat · 2022-09-22 22:03:16

Does anybody know why the flame on my oil lamp starts to shrink down to nothing when I put chimney on. Even if I extend wick the flame goes from large down to a tiny flicker. Any info much appreciated

Lack of airflow would be a prime culprit.
