Zusammenfassung:	A safety device for preventing uncontrolled burning in wick-fed liquid fuel burners of the type where a removable tank (10) feeds a sump (56), which in turn feeds a fuel chamber (24), which supplies the fuel to a wick burner. The chamber contains a float (54) that, in response to the presence of excess fuel in the chamber, rises and moves a member which obturates an opening (46) from the sump to the chamber, thereby causing the opening into the fuel chamber to be closed.
