Coleman 460G

I picked this up at a local junk shop this weekend for $100. Looks to be in good shape, but the pump needs a new cup, so I have not been able to test it out.

Are replacement cups available? If it does work, what is a fair price for one like this?



Thanks,

John

 

There is no pump cup, it uses an external pump. Read the directions on the fuel knob that's mounted on the tank carefully. It you don't lift the little stop under the knob and try to force the knob you'll break it and there are no replacements available.

 

i have the external pump, but it needs a cup replacement…

 

And do these run on gasoline or white gas?

 

Coleman fuel.

 

Thanks.

What is the value of one in this condition?

 

You can get the pump cups from Old Coleman Parts.
That looks in good shape. So many of those have tanks with a lot more holes than they need
It will run fine on pump gas or white gas/CF

 

Thanks.

If it will run on pump gas, I will keep it. I don’t want to be spending $15/gal on White Gas.

 

Interestingly, i used to live just around the corner from Old Coleman Parts.

 

It will run on pump gas but the generator will clog quicker. If you're familiar with how to clean and restore the generator fine. If not, generators are not common and are expensive.
