If you don't mind playing with some fine steel wool and spending time with a buffer, you can make that 502 really shine. Use clearcoat to protect...
Spiritburner is correct in stating he has a good reputation. In fact, it is an excellent reputation. I have dealt with the owner(Mr. Fred Kuntz)...
Mark: It was my great pleasure to help you out on your 500 Speedmaster. Hate to see a good old stove not being functional for lack of a simple...
I'll try and answer your question(s) regarding the air pump on your KampKook. The air pump plunger from your Kamplite lantern was designed to be...
That is a good question, one that I have never bothered to find out. Seems to me that the little 533 1-brnr stove was one of the first true duel...
Tim: Does your 425 stove have the 2pc fuel cap(identifiable by the screw in the middle of the cap) or is it a solid 1pc? If the earlier 2pc, I...
You are correct in asking if the 412-5621 stove generator was the one I was referring to. And I know exactly where you are leading to regardng...
That gen tip with the raised rings is a common feature of the dual fuel suitcase stoves now. I have a newer 428 3-brnr dual fuel and it has the...

Hi Ron: I have never personally done it so I couldn't tell you. All I know that there are some lantern collectors on the Coleman BBS that do...
There are those times when all the carb cleaner, lacquer thinner or some other cleaner just will not work on bad check valves. Don't forget that...
Jeff: Strange how I never noticed the position of the air pump and it's so obvious! Anyway, to answer your question to the best of my ability,...
Ron: So nothing special about your fettle to get it to get such a blue flame? Amazing. Either you are right in stating that you were just lucky...
I would agree totally with Sam & Lance. That is the bluest flame I've ever seen from a 502. I have never had one do that. Always it had a tinge of...
Hi Ron: Yes, those parts are still available from the Coleman Company. Plus there are a couple of guys who sell parts and/or repair Coleman...
Thanks, Sam. I had a lot of fun doing those custom 502s. I used to have the complete story(posting) on the Coleman forum when I made them and the...
Ron: 502 stoves do make that sound when lit. To me, it sounds more like a mini gas-turbine when operating with some stoves being louder than...
Mike: For only having a fuzzy photo with no dimensions to work with, that's a helluva nice job you did just using the good ole Mark I eyeball to...
