Default Gas And Propane

Just a question...Can a Fuel Coleman be changed over to propane?? And is it worth the money to do so??

You'd pretty much have to gut the stove, I wouldnt think it would be worth the money. Especily concidering that propane stoves are relatively cheap while white gas burning stoves are relatively expencive. It would be like putting a v6 in a Mustang Cobra.

Which brings me to ask... The white gas stoves - aren't they more reliable in colder weather? If so, just keep it as it is...

I know guys who burn unleaded in the white gas stoves and lanterns

I've never tried it, as I don't burn enough gas to warrant the cost issue.

Propane has its place, especially now with refilled small bottles. much more convenient

If you really want propane I will trade you. I have propane and would prefer gas. Doesnt get any easier than that.
