That's what they were designed for some 4-5 decades ago when gasoline was
cheap. I recommend you do that in a pinch. You might find yourself lacking
fuel to get to the next campsite or gas station should you lose track of
usage. The newer catalytic propane heaters are much better at warming bog
empty spaces like Vanagons.
