That's what I used. On the burner parts, I used silver header paint from O'Reilly's.

What are the dates on them??


Still looking for 2— 61

I have absolutely no clue. I'm not even sure where they came from, must've been my fathers.

Thanks golden eagle. Will have to pick up a can or two of header paint.

I found the model number on the old nickel font lantern. Says 228d but the ones online show a green font? Is this right? Think it's from the late 40s

Well have one check valve stuck open and one shut. Any one have a tool to remove them? Dont think a screwdriver is the tool for the job. In the grimes brazos county area

Look up old time coleman on YouTube. I think he modified a screwdriver to make it work. If i recall he ground the shoulders off the screwdriver
