Retro Tech & Electronics | Antique Coleman 425 Stove Testing Out Different Fuels for Performance @retrotechandelectronics | Uploaded April 2019 | Updated October 2024, 12 hours ago.
After my last video running my Coleman stove it was asked to me what different fuels I could run in the stove and what there performance would be. I thought this was an interesting question and decided to test this out.
I have used as a fuel
Denatured Alcohol
Kerosene
Gasoline E10
Naphtha (Coleman fuel) several years old
A fresh can of Naphtha
Each test included a complete clean-out and inspection of the tank and generator to ensure a good test.
Furthermore, its worth noting:
1) Alcohol runs too unstable as a fuel in this stove. Possible.... but not worth it..
2) Kerosene requires preheating the generator to run, but works great.
After each demo... The boil water time tests were conducted
1 Litre and 1 Cup
Another interesting discovery in all this is that while the older Whitegas (naphtha)burned fine, it did not have nearly the power of the new bottle.
