- This is a quick review of the Coleman Dual Fuel 533 Compact Camping Stove.
A great little stove for boiling a billy quickly on a cold morning.
I purchased this one for around $90.00. Trump the old butane canister stove and can run of unleaded petrol.
Hope you enjoy the video
I grew up camping in the sixties with a dual-burner Coleman stove. You're smart to get yours now 'cause they're disappearing. I just bought two 533's while they're still here. Propane/butane is so much more expensive for no benefit...best wishes from Texas-
Thankyou for the comment. Yes they are rare that’s for sure. I picked up an old 3 burner model aswell from a lady in town. Couldn’t go past it. But I still love the 533. Thanks for watching the video
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930 You know, I have an Esbit and a FireDragon and a Trangia, but let's face it: if you can handle the weight and size, something like a #533 is much, much more convenient.
I've had one of these for over 30 years. I have had to replace the generator several times in that time but beats buying a new one.
Just scored one of these new in the box at a thrift store for $5.
Fantastic stove! Hope to get one some day for future uses. Can’t beat these Coleman classics.
They are fantastic
From where to buy one of these?
Since your video was recommended, I figure I better leave my little story. Recently I went looking for some liquid gas stoves and lanterns. This was to show my young Nieces and Nephews how I camped when I was their age. I was able to get a Brand New in the box Coleman 413 2 Burner stove from 1988, for only $50 locally. Then recently on eBay I won the bid to get a working Lantern from 1972 for $7.50 and a working Coleman 424 Dual Fuel stove from 2014 for $30. Pretty good buys.
Cheers mate very informative and helpful I live in England 🏴 and going camping in the old VW trucks with some mates down the coast next weekend and as autumn has just kicked in thought I'd order myself one of these so thanks again.🔥👍
Cheers mate, how awesome to think that my little video has helped you out in England. I hope you get some good feeds and a few coffees of it in the bush very soon mate. Cheers
I’m a bit late to the party with this info but if your still in the market for one in UK then try basecamp in Peterborough. I just got one & wish I’d bought 2. £40
Thank you for the nice video, and hello from Boise Idaho.
No worries mate and g’day to you over there 🍺
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930 Thanks! I just used my stove and I was looking at videos. I guess I hadn’t responded to you lol. “Good day” brother
Love the 533's just something to add just for parts replacement sake. That tube that runs across the top of the burner is actually called the generator not vaporizer, I can see why people call it that, but you'll need to know the correct name in order to get a replacement part.
Cheers mate. Yeh got that one wrong. Got an old three burner the other day. Will do a vid on it soon too. That’s where I worked out what they’re called as it’s hard to find another one.
That was great. Thanks!
I’m considering switching over to something like this so I don’t have to carry an LPG bottle, and this looks like a really good option.
No worries. It’s a great option for boiling your water and small fry ups in the pan. Will do a camping cook video with it soon
best thing i have done is change from LPG to dual fuel stove.
best thing ever its working all tim in full power!!!
It is the ducks nuts that’s for sure mate 👍
Been looking to get another dual fuel single burner Coleman so have been watching videos to reaffirm what a great little stove it is. Onliest problem with unleaded car gas is it burns dirty, at least in the USA with all the fuel additives and what not. It still works a treat! Good video. Mahalo!
Cheers mate. Hope you enjoy cooking on it
Well presented thanks for showing
Thanks mate
Yeah I had one of these used it loads it was very efficient
Thanks, Mate! Just what I needed to know.
Hope you enjoy yours when you get one
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930 I already did and used it to fry up some gills. Hotter than my propane side burner on the grill. Nice!
@@ken48827 yep not short on power
Love the gas cooking, handy funnel that, getting out into difficult spots the gas cooker comes into play, cheers.
Always handy to have a quick easy heat source too. Especially one as portable as this stove. 👍👍
The flame won't tuturn blue by more pressure (pumping), but by a good heated generator (the tube on top of the kit).
Very true. I might have to do another video on it now I’ve used it more and from what I’ve learnt on here too. Thanks for the tip 👍
Awesome stove
That they are mate, do you have one??
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930 I sure do , and it is a very very good stove.
you got yellow flame cause the stove was over presurized!!!
Cheers mate so not as many pumps next time hey?
I have not found that on any of my Colemans. I have bought and gifted several and shown many people how to use these and have never experienced adverse affects to pumping until the plunger won't depress any further without significant resistance. I also just looked at the instructions that came with my 2001 multi fuel burner as well as my large platform twin burner and there is zero mention of 'over pressure'. In fact, the twin burner says to fill the tank when its level until fuel reaches the overflow point and then to pump it 30x times. The fuel tank builds significant resistance by 22-25 pumps and by pump 30 its really hard.
Great little demo thanks.
When using unleaded as the fuel source does the whole thing stink of petrol when you’re cooking ? Fumes from the flame ?
Cheers
Only when it’s going out and your left with some fumes. When it’s burning well it doesn’t smell
I've got a Coleman Exponent single burner petrol stove that has been used heaps of times over the past 15 years and recently a pin hole leak appeared in the tank bottom. so I bought a Coleman 533. both of them work the same principle and it looks like the generator, burner and pump are identical but the 533 has a slightly larger tank. I find the older Exponent burns a blue flame easier than the 533 for some reason. I've since soldered up the pin hole leak in the Exponent, and now have two working stoves.
Used to be able to get Coleman fuel but dont seem to be able to get it here in Australia anymore. I mostly use unleaded anyway, but find Shellite, which is white gas and probably same as Colaman fuel, works best.
to get them firing blue flame quicker I run a lit match along the generator tube to preheat before turning the fuel on
Thanks for the feedback mate.
شكرا لك حقا استفدت منك شكرا اخي.. متابعينك من اليمن ☺😘⚘🌷👏
👍
I busted thoes plastic tabs off the billy. Good for putting on the campfire without burning the plastic.
Good idea mate just did it to mine aswell. They came off so easily so I can put them back on if needed later
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930 i semi melted mine so i had to turf em
Excellent
Bloody oath
Do you already figured out how to eliminate that yellow flame? Mine does it also the higher I turn it up, but it definetively should not do that according to many, many other Videos I saw...
Thanks for posting this video. I wonder if I can use biodiesel or kerosene with this setup? Might need a little tweaking. Thanks in advance for replying. I will look around and update this comment if I find anything.
I’m not sure mate, I have only used unleaded fuel. Let me know how you go
Nice stove. And btw the pot stand look like complete flat does that mean a small/regular wok doesn't work ?
Dunno mate, haven’t tried a wok on it but it does sit flat yes
Coleman fuel (white gas) Is very pure gasoline (the stuff that comes out of the pump), but the compatibility with gasoline engines is non-existent. Pump gas has a lot of additives that do a lot of useful things, but they also give it a short shelf life.
Coleman fuel (white gas) has an octane rating of around 50, pump gas starts around 90. Octane is resistance to ignition so if you use Coleman fuel in your car it will knock.
White gas, if properly sealed, can last over 10 years, while pump gas need fuel stabilizer to last more than a few months.
Thanks mate. Some sound advice for viewers thinking of this stove
better to run it on shellite, it can run on petrol but it will clog faster and i dont think the components last as long. coleman camp fuel is just shellite but they put some rust inhibitor in it and i think 1 or 2 other additives to make it burn a little bit better
you don't need to pump it while it's warming up, in fact you can overpump it and the seals won't last as long, you can pump it while it's going if it's been on for a while and the pressure is getting a bit low because the tank is emptying, but you should only really need to pump it up before you light it, between 30 - 50 pumps (35 - 45 is what most people find works well) and once you have turned it off, release the pressure, if you store it pressurised, that also lowers the lifespan of the seals.
Some great advice. Thankyou
Have you had any problems with the generator valve sticking (around the low position) and causing fuel to spill over the fuel tank and the whole thing going up in flames. I have an older version and it’s fantastic but I’ve tried 3 of the new ones and they all had faulty valve/generators and have since been returned, these are all from Perth WA and I’ve now purchased one from eastern states in the hope it’s just a dud batch
I haven’t had an issue but I have heard that you need to replace seals on them. I think they sell a service kit. Would be bloody scary if the whole thing went up in flames though 🤯. Hopefully just a dud batch for you and you get your 💰 worth as it is a great little stove.
Use supreme unleaded I use shell here in the UK and also when you turn the stove off give it a few pumps to pressure the system then release the pressure by opening the valve so the generator and all the seals get a coating of fuel before you put it away. It’s a trick that us fishermen here in the uk use to keep the stoves working at prime.
You can clean the generators by soaking them in gasoline for 2 days. Then take carb cleaner and blow it out with a rubber tipped blow gun with compressed air. When the fuel doesnt atomizer properly it squirts fuel instead of a gas. That causes the fire.

I know you say you prefer this over propane for cold weather but I'm curious, do any canister fuels work well in the cold? Seems to me the fuel with liquid canisters is just more dense so you can take a lot more with you in the same space tank. Do these liquid fuel stoves work well at -30 Celsius.
Can’t back that up at -30 as it never gets to that here in Australia. But I find that our butane canister freeze up at cold temps where as unleaded doesn’t
Also have a brand new 533 running with coleman fuel. But on high power I always have a good amount of yellow flames in it. Also blue, but would say 30% yellow. No matter if the generator is heaten up and the amount of pumps. On low setting it is nice an blue.
Can it be, that it is because of the tank is low on fuel? Or doesnt that play a role?
Not sure mate, I find that the higher it is the more yellow flame but nice blue on low aswell. I don’t know if the amount of fuel in the tank plays too much of a role other than taking more pumps to prime
can it run on lighter fuel? like the zippo gasoline
For everyone confused petrol=gasoline
For all the Americans playing at home 👍🍺
Hi, Is it the same nozzle using white gas or diesel? Or it must be alter? Pls.
Not diesel mate, petrol but yeh you don’t have to change anything to run either fuel
Brother . Excelent collectio
Tell me about fuel . It burn on Petrol
Kerocine oil. Or . Alchol . Pls
I use unleaded petrol. You can also use Coleman camp stove fuel.
How does this perform with premix? I wanted to get one of these to use with my old waste gasoline. My waste gas is a combination of premix and straight gas that I store in one container
I don’t know mate, but I wouldn’t recommend it. I think it would clog the generator tube. There are probably others on here with different ideas but if it was me I wouldn’t use it.
Not a good idea. Premix has motor oil in it. That will quickly gunk up your vapourizer/generator tube.
You should only cover the pin hole when depressing the pump, not when lifting the plunger.
Thanks for the tip mate 👍
Do you rate the coleman dual fuel dual burner stoves too? Id assume its the same as these but in a stove form.
I have an old 3 burner that works well but it is very large to carry and store. But yes the idea is the same although the burners all run of the same generator so the pressure seems to drop off a bit as you light more burners. Maybe someone else can comment if they have experience with the two burners.
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930 thanks for ur input. Took the plunge and picked up a 2 burner from a cash converters store. Works well, thanks for ur input I will look to add ur 533 version to my kit as well cause to be honest these dual fuel gadgets look indestructible.
@@krump743 great to hear. They are tough that 3 burner of mine is 30years old and still going strong
How much fuel should you put in the tank ?
Fill it up before each trip and you’ll get the most cooking time 👍
Hey, I'm just curious if you only used petrol in this? A lot of owners are saying that you should only run white gas and save the petrol / unleaded for emergencies (or use white gas every 3rd tank as its supposed to clean the generator) as it clogs up the generator.
I'm wanting to buy one that's why I'm asking, just trying to do my homework before I buy
Do you still use this stove btw?
Not as much as I used to mate but still in my camping box, I have only ever used unleaded petrol in it. It might clog it eventually but it hasn’t yet
Thanks for the reply, I ended up buying 2 in the end lol
That's good though, how long have you owned it for now? Some people get many decades out of their stove
@@JoshSinnott97 yeh mate I’ve probably had it 3 years now. Bloody great stove. I have a really old three burner model but it needs some parts. Can’t decide whether I do it up or sell it off
I would keep it, but if you do decide to get rid of it, make sure you tell me first because I might buy it off you if the price is right
Which oils you are using to burn it up?? Simple kerosene oil can also be used in it or not??
No mate it runs on white camping fuel (shellite) or unleaded gasoline
I think that it will work with diesel/kerosene, might need a little tweaking.
@@equiplist thanks bro
After use shoud i take the pressure out or kust keep it in
I usually relieve the pressure. I don’t know if that’s right or not, just think it would help the seals last longer
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930 how do u release the pressure
After the flame is fully extinguished, this takes a while so make sure the burner is cool to touch on top. I carefully unscrew the filler cap until the pressure is released then to it up tightly again
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930 Its right, also you did over pressure but i seen you respond to someone else. mainly want to stop once you start feelign some resistance. Also about every 10 tanks or so, just a fast dash of WD40 into the pump hole itself and work it a few times, keeps the valve inside clean and the plunger happy
hello, I bought coleman 533 10 days ago, I use unleaded gasoline, I burn the stove by following all instructions, but there is a dark leak under the burner during burning, sometimes it turns into a ball of fire.
The leak continues even though I clean the generator, please help
I recommend returning it to the place of purchase and talking to them about your concerns.
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930
that's not possible because I do not come to Turkey and unfortunately sends america
@@turcangunduz4704 sorry mate but I cannot help you with your stove problem. Are there any local stove experts
Take the generator off and soak it in gasoline for 2 days.
@@robludwigsen7831 thank you
can it also run on kerosene and methylated spirits?
No I believe just unleaded and white stove fuel
Withe gasolin os ok?
Don’t know if you mean white or with but the stove will run of gasoline or shellite
Please what’s great fuel for that stove ?
I use unleaded petrol which is gasoline is America
Withe gasolin is ok? Brother
I use unleaded petrol mate I think that is the same thing
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930 umm ok brother
White gasoline? Yea, that'll work in it too. It's cleaner than car gasoline too.
Who's billy?
A mate
Where are you from mate
Australia mate
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930 you can use shellite its the same thing as the colman fuel but without the additives
Cook me up some kangaroo mate.
Will do. Cheers👍
Please tell me LxWxH of this stove. I want to put it in my bikes panniers.
Deepak, better off with a MSR Whisperlite International stove and a MSR fuel bottle, lighter and smaller. been there, done that.
About 20cm x 20cm
How much money 💰
$125 Aussie dollars here mate
@@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930 1want. One
Way too much pressure
I agree mate. Learnt since this video
Too much pressure.. All you need is just 20-25 pumps and that's it.
Good stoves aren’t they 👍👍
Not enough pressure, even Coleman says 25 pumps then light and 30 more pumps after lit.
@@Poppageno I think it depends where you are. In tropics all you need is 20 pumps and once it get hot the pressure build up inside.. if you're in a cold region you need more pumps
