I remember the old Coleman lanterns that you had to pump up and pressurize, used white gas. Same with the Coleman stove. Use it back during my old scouting days.....

 

i do not have the patience it would take to put the video together with all of the pictures.

 

that paint dried super quick. im surprised they didnt paint it while it was apart though

 

Yep, I took one of those apart and put it back together, but not that fast. Back then I only used Amoco, known as white gas. Inside was sparkling clean.

Great video! Only used Amoco in my TR6 until it turned in BP. What happened to the good ole days of 93 leaded gasoline?

 

I believe that Amoco was actually "unleaded gas", which is why they called it "white gas". I remember that the old power lawn mowers called for "white gas only". I only did that in my Spitfire.

White gasoline, also called white gas, can also be a name for pure gasoline, without additives. This was commonly used when leaded gasoline was the norm, to prevent fouling in situations where the properties of the tetraethyl lead additive were not required

 

I have a bottle of white gas in my garage for my camping stove not old enough to have put it in my car
