That's a first generation Whisperlite. Should have a date stamp on the block, though. That said, my XGK has no date stamp. I don't know what...
Nifty as these are, car fuel (gasoline/petrol) will fill the generator with soot. The Coleman solution is to replace the generator when this...
Very few stoves instant light. It requires a bleed of air and fuel vapour off the top of the tank/fount. It's a lot of trouble and expense....
Looks like a Maxie to me. MAXIE INDESTRUCTIBLE I have a couple of double-burner Maxies with the same style burners, knobs etc. Maxie made...
What you want is a Soto Muka. As has been said, the One Stove has been previously sought, never found. IMHO your options are a) priming your WL...
@Henk Kloosterman , I have not seen anything with burners like that, but few of the widely experienced participants have commented (@Tony Press is...
Fuel canisters for Whisperlites are readily available, pumps too. Any standard MSR pump ever made will fit a Whisperlite. For safety and ease,...
Just a small fact from earlier postings- these use the Nova burner not the Hiker+. Different fuel path.
I'm now completely mystified. The Coleman burner design is light, cleanable, quiet and hot. It is bulky and fragile but very well protected in...
There is no way to have a Coleman style quick-lighter and an MSR Whisperlite form factor. As others have said, prime the stove and all will be...
I use re-purposed eyedropper bottles- the sort you squeeze. Something like this: Google Image Result for...
I'd love to drop by, but I doubt I'll be in the area- a long drive from Qld, and holidays this year involve hiking in Tassie. Happy to do what I...
On the plus side, many of the parts in that are salvageable. You might not keep the seals (at least the one/s responsible for the fuel leak) but...
@snwcmpr, the request might be unusual but the thought is less strange. Trangia make a large pot (billy) for this purpose, other pots will do the...
The best option imho is a slightly larger pot that can do what the Billy is designed for- sitting on the pan holders and being large enough for...
[ATTACH] The larger pot will almost work on the pan holders. Stiff wire or aluminium angle can make a sound trivet which works better: [ATTACH]...
Most Dragonflies will burn heavier fuels ok through the same jet so you can try kerosene or whatever the local pressure stove fuel option is. As...
We each have our use environment, and sometimes our choices in a given situation might be different. That doesn't mean either option is right or...
@daddy , just leave it put. It's not part of the maintenance kits. In the older stoves a very fine metal mesh was in this place, and was in the...
