Keeping a couple liters of Coleman fuel in the back of the Westy for camping
purposes can be real handy if you run out of gas; Couple liters = ten miles
or so.

  Isn't Coleman fuel what used to be called "White gas" =ie, no
additives whatsoever - so that needle valves, small ports, silk mantles
and the like would not be messed up by the additives? I seem to remember
that the very old AMOCO stations use to always have one pump dedicated
to "white gas" which was supposed to burn "Clean".
