@Tony Press , first up, are the wrench flats metric or Imperial sizes? Could have been with a military stove - but who's? Murph
I'm pretty sure it's a Coleman but I don't know which one. The teardrop slot in the center is a wrench for removing the jet from the generator. There was a thread on CCF with a picture of several of the Coleman wrenches and an attempt by all to identify them. It would take some working with the search feature to find it. Or you could post this same question over there and probably get an answer.
@Harder D. Soerensen That’s the one! I’m going through boxes of stuff like this. If I find another one I’ll let you know. Cheers Tony
@Harder D. Soerensen, if you don't come up with one, I may have one, two have different slots down the middle. Duane
@Tony Press This is a bad pic I grabbed from google just now but it will put you on the right track. I recognized the wrench immediately as being the wrench with the Coleman OCD ( office of civil defense ) lanterns made in 1951 Probably came with other GPAs from Coleman as well but 1951 Coleman will be the right place to look.
@Harder D. Soerensen , right sharp eye you've got! I asked as to Imperial vs metric to shave down search time, no point going all out for a search when that answer alone will be a big push in the right direction! Murph
Thank you all for your help. I’ve found an illustration of the tool in a Coleman repair manual, which I will include when I post in the Reference Gallery. I have found another similar tool, also in imperial measure, and looking to track its ID down: It is ~4 3/4 inches long overall. Cheers Tony @Murph @hikerduane @cottage hill bill @Toby Garner @Harder D. Soerensen @konabill
I have found an illustration in an Australian-published Coleman catalogue that illustrates the wrench with the hex (above) as 605A-590. Terry Marsh has it listed: @Petroman I believe that you are correct. Best regards Tony
