I obtained check valve replacements for a Coleman 505A and 400 stoves (from Old Coleman Parts). Both were supplied with a small "O" ring. It fits...
I have recently purchased a Stormbreaker, so have not used it a great deal. My considered opinion is that if you are embarking on a 3 month trip,...
The observations made, and postulated reasons given are rather fascinating. I wonder if there are any combustion engineers from Rolls-Royce, Pratt...
Hiya, you might want to check that the rubber tubing on the pot handle isn't getting scorched by the flame of your super powerful Coleman 505B. I...
What happened (I was there) was that with each pump, with thumb over the air hole, more fuel spurted out. This was part of testing before we left...
I have the check valve removal tool, and used it only about three times. It is a high quality item, and allows rapid removal and cleaning of the...

I have a 1966 SVEA 123, and I can tell you that sometimes it runs amazingly well, and sometimes crap! I have taken out the wick several times to...
Very nice extra photos of your 199 on alcohol. Cheers Simon Foxxx
A fine collection of early MSR stoves and two ice axes for good measure. It looks like your collection of MSR articles is from late 1970's or...
I am fortunate enough to possess two of these great stoves. The jet does not need to be replaced when burning methylated spirit. The restrictor...
I have a Primus Omnilite Ti stove with a Primus silent burner. It runs very well on white gasoline (Fuelite here in New Zealand) and iso butane &...
Nice pair! Like you, I have some P71's from the early 1950's. As you quite rightly observe, it is an interesting time of transition of design....
A good stove indeed, similar to the 8R in many respects. Cheers SimonFoxxx
My results are an average of many tests, of different 8R stoves using 1 litre of tap water, at room temperature. A plain aluminium billy. The...
My experiments indicate 8 to 10 minutes to boil tap water at room temperature, with stove on full setting. Two primes with methylated spirit gets...
