I would definitely be concerned about rust when using anything iron / steel based. The fuel cannot be guaranteed as water free and if moisture...
Perfect! Thanks @Rangie
Before I completely over do it and end up with singed eyebrows I thought I'd ask, how many pumps to start of with using a mini-pump on a 123R and...
@TSPORT Petrol / gasoline can be used with stoves like the optimus 8R and Svea 123 that are designed for that fuel. That saves carrying separate...
