Coleman treasures

I have 286a that Mike and I could not get the check valve out. Hope we can save this lantern. There is a guy who make a removal tool. Wants like 30 for it.

I am hoping that since it is a new item, that it hasn't crusted/rusted in place. If I can't get it to budge, I'll ask for a whole new tank assembly. She actually gave me that option (sans generator and fuel valve, etc.) but I opted for the check valve since they could ship it without a picture of the stove, etc. We'll see.

If you knew someone that was a machinist, he could probably make one with a couple of pics and dimensions. Just sayin.

Pretty cool tool, I just used a big ol' screwdriver; but I think I could whip one of these up in a couple of hours.

I'll put it on the to-do list right now...

We tried big ole screw driver and liquid wrench soaking and the brass valve started to give out.

Nice talking to you Alan and thanks for the gift.

[Buckshot-73]

You are welcome.
Thank you for the guidance.

I got the stove cleaned out, you were right about dirt dobbers.

On the 220F , do I need any special tool to remove the check valve? I have a new one coming, but unsure how to remove the old one.

Some require a special tool some do not. Post up pictures of the stove.

Other than a good sponge bath to clean the dust off, this stove has not been used very much. Just some surface rust, no grease.

Very pleased with everything I bought.

This is the only spot on all three 220F...

Stamped 6 of 72. Still in amazing shape.

Nice Jan of 71 three burner!!!! Soak all those parts in Metal Rescue and put it back together. That stove will serve you well. I think you should cook on it this weekend.

You can get a couple of washers or new ventilator if the rust gets too bad Other than that you got some nice Coleman gear

That really is a nice 220F. Will burn super bright.
