    It;s been four years since I picked up my stove for $10. The 413G 1977. We talked four years ago on the video you made. I finally started to work on mine last Sunday and got it running. I love it. Today I went to the antique store and found a Coleman 502 single burner with the heat can for $40. Made in 1966. I didn't even put fuel in it and It fired up. I am now in the process of cleaning both stoves and a 1974 APC Army two burner medical stove. I have been subscribed to your channel for 4 years. Cheers. Great Video.

      The Grill stays up better when the wind deflectors are still folded in. Open the grill and take out the tank. Close grill and open wind deflectors.

    Last week my neighbor threw out an old colman model 425D stove. Now I have always use propane stoves, I was always curious of how these stoves worked so I grabbed it. After fiddling with it and a few you tube videos I tried to light it, had old fuel, and that darn thing fired right up. Found date code May 1966 on it. I like these stòves a lot mòre then my propane stoves.
    Made in America, and it has lasted over 58 years.
    We need to bring back manufacturing to the United States. We can switch shipping port jobs, to manufacturing jobs throughout the country.
    China can keep their crap.

    Got my 424 (2014 model) 7 years ago and it just works. I also have a 533(2014 model). Same deal and you are so right. I'm betting that they will easily outlive me. Seriously, I switched to predominantly white gas stoves 9 years ago and love their reliability. Thanks!

    You can find the indelible production stamp on your 413G by looking under the fuel tank tabs.

    You stole those stoves! I just ordered one for $257 from Amazon brand new. Oh well! Thank you for the great review. Hopefully, someone will be a lucky bastard and get mine in an estate sale when I kick the bucket!😅 until then, I will use the stuffing out of it. We had one when I was a kid and I’m 63 now, so lots of good memories! Cheers,😊

    If you have to hold your finger over the hole while you're turning the valve stem, likely your check valve at the bottom of your pump tube is getting gummed up. The tool is around $40 bucks. It's worth it if you have multiple stoves.

    This is a repost of a comment reply below. Figured I'd post it under the main post for all to read and argue.
    I've got a LOT of Coleman stoves and worked on hundreds more of them. I don't believe there's a whisker's difference between a "Dual Fuel" and these. They made the generators a little different, but not much. So little, in fact, that I came to the conclusion long ago that "Dual Fuel" stoves were simply a marketing gimmick to sell more stoves to an already saturated market. I mean just about EVERYONE had a Coleman stove when I grew up. And they will last forever with little maintenance. ALL the original Coleman stoves ran on auto fuel. Some even came with a siphon pump to get fuel from you gas tank. THEN..... I believe, but cannot prove, that one of two things happened, perhaps both. 1. Engines were getting higher in performance and gasoline formulations had to up their game to keep them running right with anti-knock compounds, lead and other additives that weren't so good in lanterns and stoves which created a lot of issues. And/or 2. Coleman saw a marketing bonanza in selling their own brand of "specially made" fuel for their products to keep them running at their best. Regardless of what the real reason was, they sold a lot of both new Dual Fuel stoves and lanterns AND fuel. I see Coleman fuel less and less at higher and higher prices. I get it when I find it cheap.
    In my experience, there isn't much difference if you use ethanol free unleaded and store them with the tank dry. Pump gas simply goes bad over time. White gas, on the other hand, will store pretty much indefinitely in the metal can. Not so much in the plastic bottles. I got a full case of "Coleman Premium Fuel" on sale at a crazy bargain price in the plastic quart bottles and put the case on the shelf. A couple of years later, I was out of fuel and got that case down. It felt empty. EVERY SINGLE BOTTLE was bone dry. The cap seals were still intact. Not such a good deal after all. HAHA! The main issue with pump gas, in my opinion, is the smell. Pump gas stinks. And it stinks long after it's evaporated. That lingering smell from even a small spill is a big turnoff for me. Your mileage may vary.
    My personal take is that if you are camping for extended periods and running through a lot of fuel, use ethanol free unleaded and be very careful not to spill any of it. If you don't use them much, use camping fuel/white gas/naphtha. If you DO use pump gas, it's critical to store them dry or with camp fuel in them to avoid varnishing in the tank.
    My long winded 2 cents. Have a super week!

    Neither of these stoves are dual fuel per Coleman although unleaded will work in a pinch. Dual fuel stoves generally have a silver tank and it is suggested to use methanol free fuel. Using unleaded gas in a non dual fuel will clog the generator over time costing more to replace the generator than having used camp fuel in the first place.

    • @starman6280
      @starman6280 9 місяців тому

      Generator is about $24 on eBay. Coleman fuel is about $15 per gallon. Unleaded gas is about $3 per gallon (actually $2.69 here today). Burn 2 gallons of unleaded gas instead of Coleman fuel to save the $24 to to buy a replacement generator. I have burned much more than 2 gallons of 10% ethanol unleaded through my 413F and the generator shows no signs of clogging yet.

    People who travel third world countries with these stoves burn pump gas for extended periods of time. However, pump gas will clog the generator. These travelers clean the generator regularly, which is easily removed. A rifle bore brush does the trick. In the US I have access to camping white gas so I never burn pump gas. I never have to clean the generator.
