      It will look good! Did you find a washer for the stove valve?

            WoooHooo...

            I was getting ready to break out the Dawn and give my stove a sponge bath, noticed the tank was still full. I haven't used the stove in prolly 7-8 yrs, but the fuel still smelled good. I oiled the cup, gave it a few pumps, and it fired right up.

            Been running for 15-20 mins. Now, just a ginning like it was new. AMAZING.


            Gonna let it cool down, give it a bath, and may just cook on it this evening.

                Deer camp breakfast on a 55 year old 413E Coleman Stove. I have 5 stoves and they all burn great but this one just may be the best.[emoji6]

                    I know I said I was done collecting for awhile, but this one I could not pass up.

                    It's Coleman 275 11/79 Nicked named the "Trud" Burns perfect and the case is an added bonus.

                        Y'all know that the old mantels burn brighter than the new ones. I believe the old mantels were made out of some " radioactive" material.

                          Several of the lanterns I bought have those old mantels. Those burn really bright. I will research what makes the brighter.

                            Thorium was used in gas mantels. My wonderful wife is in the radiation field.

                              I have one of those Timm but the globe is missing. Been looking off and on for a reasonably priced replacement
