Just got a 425F Stove, Mfg. in 1987...in very good condition and works. Will be a great compliment to the vintage 220-228F Coleman Lantern I have from our family camping trips during the early '70's.
I just got a 1965 425D gifted to me and I can't wait to use it! Watching a lot of these videos to understand how these things work before I try it out.
Very cool I have the same one in the box we used camping growing up ! Lantern too, both in now and stored in the original boxes! My father is one of those people who keeps things show room clean for its life too so they are in phenomenal condition and had been well taken care of! He said they were purchased in 74 also!
Looks like you nailed it. I've been making coffee like that for over 45 years colder the water pour the better the coffee never had to pour that far away 5 inches will work. Great video guys.😎👍🏻
99.9% works and if they don't, Not had to work on. My 426D 3 burner needed the leather on the pump rejuvenated and a o-ring in the gas cap. Been taking it camping every trip for about 3 years now. the family loves it.
the air screw raises and lowers a needle inside the fuel pick up with in the tank so once the generator has heated up in the tube you pointed out, you get fuel instead of the fumes at the top of the tank needed to start the stove.
You made cowboy coffee dude. I add 1/4 cup ground coffee to a quart of warm water. Bring to a simmering boil for 2-4 minutes. Take coffee off the heat and let it brew a few minutes. Add a splash of water to settle grounds. Or not, they settle out fine by themselves until you get to the very bottom of the pot. Grounds in the bottom of the cup get tossed just like in movie westerns. Edit to add I use a 1960s era Coleman two burner in my yurt. 60 years old and still burns great. Also have a Coleman two mantle gas lantern as well. I ALWAYS use white gas, NEVER unleaded. Also if the tank doesn't hold pressure and you know for certain its not leaking gas or air at the filler neck, then the problem is the ball check valve at the bottom of the air pump tube is leaking. To service you need a big azz slotted screwdriver to remove the check valve. That check valve went bad on both my Coleman stove and gas lantern.
These Coleman stoves really rock. Use mine since at least 40 years now, all over the world (europe, eastern europe, North Africa and south/central america) and still work like the first day when I was a kid. The griddle plate I never saw.. is it something from coleman aswell? Where can you buy it? Nice video of two men enjoying their freedom and time together 🎉
Do you smell or taste fuel in your food when you cook on the side of the cast iron griddle that previously operated toward the flames of the Coleman gasoline stove?
Nice to get out and do some outdoor cooking. Well done! The lighting lever does nothing to clean the gas tip. The needle is threaded directly into the valve stem. To clean the orifice, close the valve and open it several times. This is a very common misconception because this lever looks like the cleaning lever on the lanterns. But the operation is reversed.
@@outerlimitless Absolutely, picked it up at an antique store for $40. It was in excellent condition. She didn't know what she had, it was a very good day.
Literally the week before I watched a guy cook on an old Coleman stove, he went on about how tough they were and (if) you can find one buy it and keep it.
If you're referring to Joe's knife, that's the TFK T17. It's an Outer Limitless design produced by maker TFK. You'll find videos with it, or feel free to ask questions. Thanks for watching!
I love t hese original stoves, I love it more where people are still using them. I do not care for all these review videos of rediculous stuff. I have a three burner coleman and I love it. It belonged to my dad which i inherited, along with his cokeman lanterns. I have very beautiful memories of my I aren't camping trips.
@@outerlimitless The lever is for starting the stove but mostly for cold starting in winter. Flip it up for starting. It makes the stove run rich. Some Coleman stoves and lanterns have a lever for generator tip (needle) cleaning but not this stove. The proper way to clean the generator is to remove the generator tube by using a wrench on the tip. It unthreads from the main valve body. Inside is the needle and spring. These can be cleaned by soaking in alcohol and wiped down. if carbon is really bad, the spring can be run on a wire wheel. Unless you have a lot of hours on the stove or are running gasoline through it, regular service is not required. Source, I'm a military member who uses and services these stoves regularly.
@@outerlimitless Rotating the lever is completely useless and has no effect in removing carbon in the generator. People think this lighting lever is the same as the pricker's lever of a lantern but it's not. The needle inside a stove's generator is not mounted on the lighting lever but instead screwed to the valve stem. The lighting lever actuates a tiny steel rod inside the fuel-air tube that goes down in the tank, which leans on enriches the fuel and air mixture depending upon the lever's position: up (lean) for lighting and down (rich) once the generator is heated up to its running temperature.
@@rob3071actually no, the lighting lever in the up position allows the stove to run off of the vapor and closes the pickup tube so that raw fuel isn't coming through. Once the generator is warmed up enough to vaporize the fuel, you then turn the lighting lever down to let the fuel run rich. And the appropriate way to turn off the stove is to turn the lighting lever back in the up position for a minute or two before closing the valve to the off position. This allows the vapor inside the generator to fully burn off which makes the generator last longer without getting gummed up from leaving fuel inside it
The knife is too small. You need a 4' sword that weighs 12 lbs to go into woods. That way you don't have to bring a 1lb folding saw, and the sword will lend credibility and look manly. You know.
That TFK looks great coming out of the pocket 1st thing I thought was cool blade what is that duh. It didn’t blow up yeah .the cold water pushes down taking the grinds with it as the hot water rises bringing up clean coffee at least that’s my scientific perspective 👍🏻. Joe’s voice sounds familiar like a radio personality can’t put my finger on who though 🤔.
People have been drinking coffee for hundreds of years in bottles and tins just in that same fashion. I like it that way best. I cook mine like that on my m1950 pocket stove every day. You don’t even need to pour water in it. Just let the grounds settle for about 2 minutes and enjoy! Percolators have only been around for the last hundred years or so.....and disposable paper coffee filters were invented by a sweedish female school teacher back in the early 1900’s.
Man more people need to just chill like this, oh yeah!
Coleman Stove When camping equipment was made to last! I’ve have a Classic Coleman working great after 15 years!
I was just gifted one of these! I needed it during the Texas winter storm of '21 when we lost power. I'm ready now and I'll "never go hungry!" 💥💯🎉

You are the first I have seem to be smart enough to pump it up before connecting it. Tip top!

Sweet! Great gift! Enjoy it and thanks for watching...I hope it helps!
This reminds me of Camping with the Coleman and my family when I was a kid.
Good stuff.
YEAH man...bring it back old school. Very enjoyable!

Oh wow...nice!! Sounds like a bit of a collector's piece maybe? I have used this one quite a bit at this point...it's great!

These stoves are great. I still use one camping in my fj cruiser and it never lets me down.

The more I see these the more I want one
I live in Wichita Ks. & pick these up at garage sales all the time. Going price around here is $10 give or take.

Nice stove!
Still working like a champ!!
Absolutely!! It runs great! Thanks for watching!
I am jealous! Thx for the awesome video.
i got 6 and added a 3 burner to my collection

Man that food looked good!
Was absolutely delicious!! Thanks for watching...I've been following your channel for years. Great work!! Thanks for the dedication!
I think Mad Max would enjoy caring one of these in the back of his interceptor car!!!!!
Do you smell or taste fuel in your food when you cook on the side of the cast iron griddle that previously operated toward the flames of the Coleman gasoline stove?

What a badass stove. Went through Nam before it was even built. Pretty cool stuff.
I have that exact same stove, I have a plastic folding table that I set it on to cook outdoors, I've never had a problem.
Nice...is yours vintage too? Cool having good functional vintage gear!

@@WadeFrick sweet! Great snag! Lucky find! Thanks for watching!
I just picked up a 1970 at a yard sale, um thinking tailgate cooking in hunting season, yes it still works!!!!@
Great find!
Cooking on the tailgate beats the hell out of cooking on the ground when you're old.
ASMR cooking at it's best! Lol. Making me hungry!!
Tiện lợi ngon quá , đi dã ngoại 4,5 người là tuyệt vời 👍 cảm ơn bạn .
Awesome vid!
Hi Takachin! I'm watching from Japan! I love Coleman products, so I made a video too!
Try out the Coleman Dual Fuel stove and lantern! They run on both Coleman (white gas) fuel AND unleaded gasoline!!!!
That's pretty sweet...hell I always have gas around...that would be super convenient!
I just got (2) of these at a thrift store for $15 each. One is the smaller 425e
when shutting down, turn the tiny valve lever upwards
Does that help clean out the generator and keep the tip clean?
My father had a stove with a Copper fuel tank. Maybe bought it late 60s early 70s. We cooked a lot on it until 2010s.
love the stove but the heat from the spark rod will cause the paint to have pin holes- thus leading to rust.
get you a 426 model 3 burner stove and you will be hitting it out of the park
Good job I'm hungry
Thanks for watching! Always fun using good gear for good food in the bush!
What knife are you carrying in the video?

Hello sir that was a awesome video. What size msr fuel bottles are u able to store (oz) in stove? Thanks
The fuel I store in there is mainly the red fuel tank that it comes with. I'm sure more could be stored, but I generally don't personally.
I love t hese original stoves, I love it more where people are still using them. I do not care for all these review videos of rediculous stuff. I have a three burner coleman and I love it. It belonged to my dad which i inherited, along with his cokeman lanterns. I have very beautiful memories of my I aren't camping trips.
I found an ol’ Coleman like this, I’m going to buy a conversation tube for $20ish for propane.
Don't do that cause you can use gasoline or any white gas liquid
I have a vintage stove similar to yours. What kind of fuel to you use and how long does the fuel last ?
This stove is white gas...it lasts a while...certainly enough for a full meal.
I had a small leak on the tank take it from me don’t use a spark to light those old Colman s use a lighter or match
Yikes!! Good point!
Very good point actually.
Look at the top edge of the gas tank filler neck where it contacts the cap. If its corroded or rough to the touch dress it flat with a file.
That's just wrong. I'm watching this before breakfast! Dammit!
Hahaha, that's awesome. I hope you had steak and eggs!
We Canadians call it cowboy coffee
Small valve....up to light down when burning hot. No need at all to spin it multiple times.
He was saying that spinning the valve was to clear any carbon buildup...not for opening or closing the valve.

"That ain't a knoife, this is a knoife."
Nothing better than a nice Knoife!!
Imco funkmeister would be perfect to go with this stove
Oh WOW, yes it would. Glad you said that! Expensive if they're in good condition, but very cool!
@@outerlimitless Yeah they are also easy to restore with flitz and 0000 steel wool, brings them back to almost new.
AKA Cowboy Coffee been doing this for years
You see ? You r using middle part of the knife for chopping wood.. no.
Is yours a 425E?
I will have to take a look...I am not sure. I'll get back to you once I have the info. Thanks for watching!
@@outerlimitless yeah I was foaming and slobbering at the mouth drooling cooking. :-)
they're grounds not grains
That’s called cowboy coffee
They don't make things like they used to too bad they didn't make an oven like that
You can still buy this stove brand new. Made in Kansas. And Coleman makes a small oven that folds flat. It sits right on top of the burner for baking.
Your story don’t jive with the scribbling of the back of the stove and the needle is mounted to the main fuel valve not the vapor intake tube 🤦🏾♀️
The knife is too small.
You need a 4' sword that weighs
12 lbs to go into woods.
That way you don't have to bring a 1lb folding saw,
and the sword will lend credibility and look manly.
You know.

Joe has that radio quality to his voice. Very smooth... But yeah, that coffee was great...I think your theory is about right...certainly makes sense.

Percolators have only been around for the last hundred years or so.....and disposable paper coffee filters were invented by a sweedish female school teacher back in the early 1900’s.
It tastes better than in a damn plastic coffee maker like everyone uses. I like boiling in a pot...nice and strong, but less bitter.
"this is your pressurizer,aircontrol annnd fuel control"=FAIL! none of those things are correct.
He is correct.
Your steak is overcooked
I could smell those onions when he cut them lol
Hahaha...making you hungry?? Thanks for watching!
