Hi Rick;
   Pump that puppy up and make sure it will hold pressure without leaking.
Minor
leaks can ignite without major problems, but you definitely want to be sure
there
are no big leaks before any fire is involved.

Rick;

I had a plumber's burner that appeared to work fine. To my dismay I found 
that if it needed to be pumped up while it is fired, sometimes it would spray 
fuel back through the pump onto my hand causing a awshit situation. Be careful 
and shut the burner off before operating the pump. I was able to solve the 
problem by trashing the burner.
