Found this little fire-eater at a flea market. The seller wasn't sure what it was. And how he/she worked. I only knew this type of stove from a photo. And that made me think they were much bigger. I think they are beautiful and have already cooked on them.
I'm not making the video again. How can you tell which brand it is? What is the difference with a PT1 in appearance? There is nothing written on this burner.
Your video doesn't show much detail. On the other hand, I am sure that PT-1 did not make such burner adjustment keys. Besides, PT -1 tank was nickel-plated. Also, the handle of the adjustment wrench on the TP-1 is with the Inscription in Cyrillic.... I personally do not have an 8R, but as far as I know there are differences in the threads of the nozzle and bell. I don't know if this helped,but this is as much as I can
Zippo Lighter Fluid is naptha. So is Coleman Fuel. Commonly called White Gas in the US. In the UK, it's called Aspen 4 and/or Panel Wipe. Coleman ''Gas'' is rediculously expensive abroad. Here it runs about $15 -17 USD per US Gallon in the red/white can. 3.8L. Crown is cheaper, but its price jumped to $12 a can. Even though Coleman sells Dual Fuel stoves, that can allegedly burn automotive ''Unleaded Pump Gas'' [which is trending at under $4/ US Gallon] it's not a good idea to burn this fuel in stoves, as American gas has many additives, none of which have healthy fumes, plus the inclusion of 10% alcohol. Lighter fluid is sold at about $4 - 5 USD for a 3 - 4 oz can. Most expensive. I don't believe Diesel is called Gasoline in ANY language. It's very close to Kerosene, but has detergents and other additives. Not a great candidate for stove fuel, although the military had some stoves that ran on JP-8. Jet Propellant.* Very highly refined kerosene. [*Just before they chucked the stove concept and went to flameless ration heaters.] Gasoline in US parlance, is ''Petrol'' in the UK, <<Benzin>> in Germany, ..D'Essence'' in France. Kerosene, in US parlance, is ''Petroleum'' in the UK. I have no clue what it's called on the Continent. Petrol and Petroleum can be very confusing. Australians tend to use the American words, at least since the 1940s. Judging by the blue case color, and the shape of the control key, I'd say you have an Optimus 8R. By the way, don't leave the key attached while cooking. You'll know why not, after you do it once.
Kerosine (US) is not petroleum in the U.K. it’s Paraffin . Petroleum in the U.K. is abbreviated to petrol ie gasoline or gas (US).
We have gas that is liquid fuel, gas that is gaseous fuel, gas that is vaporized liquid, gas that is expelled from the butt, gas in the stomach and uncomfortable, and gas that is the persons energy level. "He just ran out if gas".
