Thanks Frank, great job of teaching the rebuild process and how to build the clamp.

In my experience they run better on pump gas if you use a smaller mantle. I actually cut mine down and use a single strand of thin copper wire as a tie-off. Worked amazing. Still threw lots of light but you didnt have so much flame and smoke when lighting. Cool video, ive yet to have to clean the generator or do your little needle twirl thing tho.

Nice Vid. You're holding the Channel Lock pliers backwards. If you turn an adjustable wrench or this channel-lock the other way, it will tighten the jaw clamping pressure as you put force on it.

Great series of videos. Just picked up a 413E for $15 and these videos will be a huge help in the restore. "I like new stuff.....when it gets old" 👍🏻

Thanks I got mine fixed with a piece of wire

Hi I would to know ir coleman made 200A 11 09 1961

May I suggest a diagnostics video. Knowing what parts need to be replaced would preclude.taking apart the assemblies that are functioning correctly, and the risks of destruction ever present disassembly of old, frozen, and rusted parts. I hate to mess up parts fixing something that was not broken to start with. Also, I use a large old muffin tray for parts. The holes are numbered, and the parts from each sequential step go into sequential holes, making reassembly more obvious. An egg carton also works, but is very easy to upset. Thanks for a good video. P.S. You are not the only one to hunt for a piece you are already holding.

Excellent video!

Im having trouble with my colman northstar.. its over 20 yrs old and now its only burning the top of the mantle.

Hi Frank, how are you and family? Another faster idea is get some clear plastic aquarium hose from Amazon, lay it on floor and carefully cut it down one side with razor knife measure and slip on bottom of fount.. Thanx, Sam

Frank. Great video series and thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and insights. I have a Coleman 421B made by Coleman Canada. I’m having issues getting it to light. Pump pressure is excellent but when I do your Vapour test as you have shown in the video, I only get air with no vapour at all. Could you point me in the right direction on how to fix? Is this a check valve failure? Thanks for your help.

I am over 80 years old. I have been using auto gasoline for over 60 years. Long ago Amoco Hi-Test was the only unleaded fuel you could buy at the pump. I used Coleman fuel back when it was $3.00 a gallon. Last time I was in Walmart, the off brand camp fuel cost the same as Coleman brand, $18.99 a gallon. I have been burning gasoline a long time. I do ventilate the space well, but I do that with Coleman fuel too. It seems a tiny bit less bright, but I prefer a single mantle lamp, and a bit less light is no big thing. Where I live I can still pick up an old lantern for $10:00 or so. I keep a couple of gallons of gas through hurricane season, and put it in my car when it gets a little old. For 20 bucks I have plenty of light and stove, even if the power is off for a month. If I use the gear right, I never have any problems. There are still a lot of stoves around, from when there was no electricity in rural areas. I like a Coleman stove better than an electric one. The Coleman brings back memories of a lifetime of camping every time I light it, and the stove and a percolator have brought a lot of new friends to my camps. It is good to see younger guys preserving these beautiful old Coleman products. thanks for a great video.

Could you give me some advice about a 288 the burn isn't as bright as it should be I have replaced the generator and the control valve and clean the air tube can you help

I just got my parents 431 easy lite model, brings back alot of memories from when i was a kid. Even still has the stand. I dont see that you have these canadian models on the table or on your channel??. Can you do a video and break down of these Canada models??

Mind blown, thank you Sir.

You probably have and in with Colman. Why doesn't Colman have on the shelves beside the stoves coleman spray paint ?? You should pitch that to them lol

Thank you so much for all the pointers. I have been working on these lanterns since i was in the Boy Scouts in the early 70's . When one malfunctioned i would bring it home and my dad and i would fix it. He could fix anything and i picked up that Gene. Bought 3 at a yard sale not long ago but here is the jewel. 1965 220F which i kept for myself. Followed your directions and i have a brand new lantern. I fixed the other 2 and gave them to a good friend that helps me all the time.

I recently got a Coleman 502 and noticed it dose not pressurize when I pump it up. What could be causing that the check valve or the pump leather?

Frank! I love these videos especially the old stuff/ I have a few quicklite lanterns and lamps and love your videos on those. I would love to see more of those that are now 100 years old like a 100 year old running video or live of something. You are knowledgeable and fun to watch Thank You for these videos.

Hi Joe how was the coleman convention

Your level of detail and care of everything is remarkable! Love to have you rebuild mine

Think I can do it myself now. Thanks 😅

I'm working on a couple of those lanterns now,do you sell parts ?

I bet you could use a good fuel injector cleaner to clean them up.

i have a 1970's coleman lantern but have never used it my coleman stove however ive used a lot and at one point for about 3 years was my only way of cooking my neighbor found it a dumpster where our other neighbor had thrown it away so i got my 1963 426 e model stove for 20 bucks even still had good coleman fuel in the tank that stove will never leave my possesion

Interesting, do you have a video about the check valve can they be repaired? Cheers Graham

Interesting video, mayb wear thick rubber kitchen gloves 🧤 stop the cutting ✂️ hands cheers Graham

Thank you very much for the info, wish you lived closer to me, I have several Coleman lanterns and stoves ,, so far very little trouble with any of them, I just bought a three burner stove about year back and I never knew they existed, learned a lot in couple videos I watched, subscribed now, well done sir and thank you

Thankyou so much ,I just successfully rebuilt my wife's late father's 200a with this video series,was made Nov 1955,she is more than pleased to see it working again,brought back alot of fond memories for her from her youth up at big bear with her dad

thank you

Best tutorial I've seen on just about any subject. Slow enough pace, no hurry-up editing, and no stupid music or idotic theatrics. Thank you. Now I can get to work on a 200 I just salvaged. After that, a 502.

Are we going to hear from you soon?

I've got a ? My 2 burner manual says to fill with 13oz of fuel. But it holds more. I've been using pint liquor bottles. And I use a 750 ml bottle for storage/ transport of fuel. My tank took an entire 750 ml. Now, I know about the void, and never overflow since using my system. Just how much fuel is correct? I get about an hour out of 375 ml, but just curious.

Very good presentation thankyou so much sir.I always enjoy your exhibits.you are most knowledgeable. 😊

Do you have a Coleman's rocket stove (WW2 GI stove) To show off? Those are a super cool old coleman device!

Excited to see the results! Keep us posted

Just want to say thank you for this video. I was able to get a 1967 Coleman 502 for 50 bucks and with your guidance I disassembled it, fixed the pump cap, changed the gasket, cleaned the generator and now it runs like new. It was really easy to follow along. Clear and simple instructions plus the calm manner of Frank made for nice project.

This is the best description of these I've seen. I wanna build a fuel vaporizer for an engine. As a kid I'd look at these , and wander if it would work by running the exhaust gasses over a generator, scaled up of course

Frank, I have been watching your videos and I love them. Would you please consider analyzing the Coleman M1950 military stove, Vietnam era? I have two of them and they are awesome. They look like little moon landers with their folding feet and fold out pot supports. Thanks!

I would love to see you do an analysis of the Coleman M1950 military stove - Vietnam era. I have a couple of them and they are awesome. They look like little moon landers with their folding legs and fold out pot supports. As you know, they were made by various companies, including Coleman.

Hey i need help i cant get the tip cleaner assembly off with the half inch wrench its so tight what else can i do

Thank you for the good learning video. I would like to make you a suggestion. Among numerous lantern manufacturers, Coleman is the only one that maintains a lantern mass production system. Thanks to this, it is still possible to purchase new lanterns at a low price. I have owned NorthStar Gasoline in the past, We are currently using Premium Dual Fuel (285A), Powerhouse Dual Fuel (295A), Single Mantle (286A), and Kerosene (639C) lanterns. I live in Korea. In Korea, Japan, and China, 285A, 286A, 295A, 639C, and NortStar can still be purchased as new models at low prices. Please tell people who are still buying new lanterns how to maintain these lanterns. You could teach beginners how to maintain a lantern in an easy-to-understand way. That video will become a steady-selling video for a long time and will be viewed by many people. Some of those people will naturally grow up to be old Coleman lantern enthusiasts. And you will earn money from UA-cam.

In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king.you go Frank thanks a million for the greatest presentation. 😊

I learned how to cuss watching my Dad try and start our 426D. Thanks for the video. I need to do a little work on our 60 year old unit.

Hey how do i remove that old white gas in the lantern to work on it safely ?

This is great, thanks, I will be making one of these devices over the next few days. Question: is the 1/4" tubing an outside diameter measure or an inside diameter measure? (Guessing outer, but maybe it is inner diameter and then the goal is just to really snugly push 3/8" of the outer diameter through the cork so it is super pressure-tight?)

Great job I’ve got six old Coleman’s , I’m 57 years old , I was raised with these stoves my kid just found two in the dump actually pretty good shape just gonna clean them up like you did and replace whatever parts that need replacing, thanks for the content excellent video , keep ‘em burning brother.

Another great tutorial by Frank

Is it the same repair if the air will not go in?

OR...the guy going up says "Do you know anything about propane bbq grills?"
