Totally the BEST how-to video I have ever seen on KZfaq. No waisted monolog, great tips, every detail covered, good camera work, editing and audio. Thank you!

It is rare to find someone who has the mind of an engineer, skill with a camera, and great command of clear, precise, English. This would have been enjoyable even if I did not own such a stove (and an old, single-mantle lantern, that still works great after forty years). Thank you!

This is by far the best how to video I’ve seen on KZfaq on anything ever! Thank you very much for taking the time to do such an amazing job at explaining, showing and demonstrating the process

When i got my 1st coleman stove a few yrs ago i watched many videos to learn all i could about them. I occasionally watch some now as a refresher. I have to say this video is the most thorough one ive seen of all. Thank u. One tip--i use very fine steel wool to wipe down the needles, tubes and brass prts. and then spray down with a cleaner.

I’m in the midst of tearing down and rebuilding a Coleman 413F stove . Your video ( I’ve watched numerous ) is by far the BEST !! I can now continue with the rebuild with a lot more confidence!👍👍 Thanks .

A no nonsense, straight forward instructional. Great camera positioning. Well done sir.

I have an old Coleman stove that I would like to disassemble and clean up so I have watched at least a dozen videos over the last few days. Without a doubt, this is the most informative "how to" video I have found. Thanks for being so thorough & clear in explaining the parts, clean up & repair process, and proper storage.

This has to be the best restoration video on these stoves. The restoration of that tank, puts you in the top league!

Excellent video. Just bought a 45 year old stove like this . Glad there is people like yourself that makes these videos

So great to see & hear a lucid, logical, eloquent disertation. Well done! These are great SHTF stoves. Everyone should aquire one for camping, winter storm power outages.

Fantastic in-depth video on the proper maintenance of these old stoves. Thank you for helping people keep these things going. The modern day Coleman products are no-where near as good as this era.

If you don’t already publish instructional videos for a living, you definitely could. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a clearer explanation of steps involved on any subject matter. Well done.

Excellent video demonstration...I inherited 2 of these from my late father in law, been sitting for at least 6 years. Been scared to mess with them, but after this I'm comfortable with getting them back into usable condition. Thank you for excellent demo on complete teardown

Excellent video with step by step instructions. I recently found my Coleman 425E hiding in the attic and I will restore using this video. Thank you.

Excellent video, I mean excellent. I'm in PSL, FL. Every few years I have to bring it out for a hurricane. My great aunt bought mine for me for my 16th birthday, 49 years ago. I subbed

I have a job like this that I need to get done. Thanks for adding to my weekend chore list.

This is an incredible breakdown. Just found one of these in my parents basement crawlspace and wanted to set it up for camping this summer. This is everything I needed to know in marvelous detail, thanks again!!

The best how to video I've ever seen on KZfaq on any subject. Thanks so much.

Your the first person that did it the right way . Powder coating thumbs up 👍 .

It's very apparent you know what the hell you're talking about. Definitely not a rookie. Very well described. No BS. Excellent. Thanks!

I have watched other videos on cleaning these stoves. Your video is the most comprehensive and thorough demonstration of the complete tear-down, cleaning, and reassembly of the Coleman stove. Your video is a confidence booster.

Fixed my leaky '84 single fuel, worked like a charm. Thanks!

Thanks for your time it's going to help me with my dad colman 413G were having to put him ina nursing home

You video was EXCELLENT!!! Even a 74 year old woman could do it after watching you. Appreciate it

Thanks I have my Grandfathers old 425B I plan on restoring. This is going to be on repeat in my garage for sure.

Just picked up the same stove at a flee market . New in the box , never used . Got it for 20 bucks .

Thanks so much for this! My stove had accumulated some residue over the years, and the burn was a little weak. With the help of this video, it's running like new again, despite its trail-won battle-scars.

Excellent break down and repair of the Coleman Stove . Thank You.

Very nice video with concise easy to understand commentary. Thank you.

Such an excellent video! It should win a prize for quality.

This was fantastic. It is the most comprehensive yet understandable disassembly and reassembly I think I have ever watched.

I watched the whole teardown. Great job on the stove. I couldn't do the breakdown of the 425 I have but would love to do it...I'm not sure I could put it back together again. Lol. Great job!

Great vid. Thank you for going through the entire process. Well done sir.

Ditto on all the positive comments. I thought I was Mr. Fix It. Top notch!

Extremely helpful! Best restoration video I found! Got mine up and running well! Thank you! Bless

I would have used a scotchbrite pad and Dawn dish detergent and water to clean the parts. Then, reassemble the stove back together. Your video helped me fix my Colman 425.

Such a fantastic video sir! In depth knowledge of every element, presented perfectly with no wasted time. Very much appreciate you taking the time to make such a detailed video. It really helped me. One of the best tutorial videos I've watched 🙂 Best of luck

Excellent video, thank you for posting it. Just got down a 425E from a shelf in the garage where it has been sitting for 30+ years. The tank had some coleman fuel in it. It was my folks which I inherited. Oiled the pump (leather cup) and emptied the old fuel into a can. Found an excellent YT video (this video!) that shows how to test the tank and valves before you put fuel into the tank. My tank & valves tested OK. Then filtered some of the old fuel thru a paper coffee filter back into the tank, pumped it up and it fired right up and ran great. Pretty amazing after 30+ years of storage. Brought back childhood memories of camping & cooking.

Best video on these things I have seen.....Bobby below is spot-on.

Very informative video, thanks! Now I have something to search for when I go rummaging.

This was a very good repair video. The information was concise and easy to understand. I have looked at several and overall this is the best one.

8/16/2022 I have an older model version of this stove, probably an A or B version, ( none of the seams are rounded) which I found in the trash about 40 years ago. So it's somewhere close to 60 years old or better. At that time it was rough, but only needed a new fuel cap and generator innards. I have always wanted to rebuild the old girl, and now I have the process to do it. Thanks for a fine instructional video. Rust removal may be problematic though. These old stoves are rock solid and should be part of everyone's preparedness kit. I have a propane Colman, never used it in 22 years, still in its box. I'll go to the old tried and true "White gas" version every time. ;-)

Your video is impressive to say the least and you are very articulate. Respect sent and Thank You.

Bravo. I just pulled my 425 out of the attic, which we used one time 30 years ago. Looks brand new but it is shooting yellow flames out of the burner. Now I have a idea what we need to do.

Perfect how-to, thanks. I have one we haven't used since the '70s I'll have to go through. Thanks for serving. USAF 1958-1970

Excellent information on a complete rebuild of these stoves...I have 2 that have been stored for decades that need to be gone through & rebuilt to get them functional again...I have a 425D & 425E...can't wait to have 2 fully functional classic Coleman stoves!

My grandfather recently passed away and he had one of these in storage. I took it thinking it was a propane stove and almost took it to the scrap yard thinking it was a piece of crap before I did some research on how it works. I thought it was the coolest thing. When I got home from work, I took it outside and with the old fuel inside and it being in storage for who knows how long it lit right up and worked perfectly. It's the 425B so I believe it's at least 60 years old. Can't want to pull it apart and get it cleaned up. Your video will definitely help. Thank you

I have a 425 and a 424...looks like I just found 2 projects! Great video, thanks!

Thanks so much for this video! I just found two 425s at our local transfer station for free. They are in great shape and I will be using your video to help guide me through their checkout Thanks so much!!!

Thank you. This was very well filmed and narrated. Was straight to the point and didn’t waste any time, had all the relevant information I needed.

I'm guessing this is a mid 1970s model Coleman Stove. We had one. Great stove. Great memories. Great Video.

That was excellent. Good precise english skills and excellent camera work.

the best video on Coleman stoves i have found thanks

Thank you for this video. now i know how to maintain and clean my newly bought stove. Many videos i watched guys told they threw there stoves away because of malfuntion. if they saw your video i am sure this would not have been necessary to buy a new one. Greetings from Austria (Arnold Schwarzenegger not Australia)

Awesome video. I have an old Coleman three burner stove from the 60's. I see a project in my future. 👍👍

Thanks! I just bought a new Coleman 424, which I think is exactly the same mechanically beside minor changes maybe... your video will be very useful to keep it running for the next century :D thanks and greetings from Italy!

WoW! Bud you brought back old times for me ! I was a Coleman repair guy .. I could still smell the fuel and cleaner while you did the video . BOOM you did it just like we did it ! GREAT JOB .

Very good video. Taught me more than I needed to know. But that's a good thing.

The video was clear and easy to follow the rebuild was also great The font redo was good but should have refinished and repainted the rest of the stove .😃

Cleaned my 76 425 today after watching this video. Everything went perfectly and now I have a great running stove.

I love watching video how how things work I am not knowledgeable when it comes to this stuff so this is kinda like being in a class room which I love thanks so much!

Just what I was looking for, thank you!

Great video very through! I have the same stove someone gave me. I love the powder coating! It looks amazing! Thanks for the best one I've seen yet on this!

Excellent video! Thanks for making this. Love these stoves.

I have many coleman stoves and will definitely use ideas you're video showed me

Love that Army Stove!

Have needed this vidio for years,thank you.excellant!

Been looking forward to this. 😃 I love your restorations/maintenance clips, some of the best on KZfaq. I hope you stay safe.

Great video! Very helpful 👌 ☺

Thank you, I needed this. I'll probably be watching it quite a few more times as I get mine going again.

Nice concise and detailed tutorial-very helpful!

Thanks again for the information

Going camping soon and I have a 413E that's having gas flow issues, your video was the first to pop up after a quick troubleshooting search. Excellent demonstration, your video was edited so that visuals were clearly displayed, and your vocabulary was very precise in diagnosing and addressing found issues. I found this video incredibly useful and I can't believe your audience is as small as it is for the attention to detail you've given. Your channel is definitely deserving of more exposure, you've earned a sub out of me!

Thank you! Now I can really go to work! Very detailed - I needed that.

This is a very thorough video. Nice job.

Excellent video!!! I will be referring to it often.

Thank you for such a great video.

Good job! One of the best Coleman stove work videos on here.

This was great, and I thank you very much. My father started camping up in the Adirondacks in 1955 or so, me in 1967 as a young boy, and I carried on the tradition after his death in 1987. I still use the Coleman stove he bought in 1956 but have never done any work to it. We used to use unleaded gas, but switched to Coleman fuel decades ago. I've never drained the fuel upon storage and never had a problem just pumping it up and lighting it. Always works fine. But it's been a few years, and after 67 years I think it's worthy of a rebuild. Will buy the graphite from Old Coleman Parts (maybe a new pump leather or whatever they use these days) and hope all the other parts are in serviceable condition. Have to find a place that will sand blast/powder coat the tank...

Thanks for this well done demonstration - professional and entertaining at the same time.

Excellent work. Thank you sir !

Thanks so much! you helped me fix a brand new stove that had a valve that would close.

Great video. This will be super helpful as I refurbish my Goodwill find. Thanks so much.

This is a great video which makes it incredibly easy to follow along and learn a great deal all at the same time. I love it!

This tutorial is outstanding! Thank you for this.

Super thorough!! Was a great help, thank you so much Stove is working like a charm now, blue flames all around haha

Thanks for the excellent presentation.

Outstanding presentation! All good clearly shown info with no ramble babble.

I just did maintenance on that same stove, mine is 1977 vintage, still works great

Nice detailed video! Seeing the paint job on the tank was worth it alone! Love it!

Outstanding in every aspect. Retired Stationary Engineer, Steam power plant for a state facility. Ongoing seminars & conferences, upgrading tech classes every year throughout my career. I know many people who would do just as competent a job on this rebuild, very few who could teach it in as fine a manner as this video. Excellent vocabulary, everything to the point, great step-by-step procedures with the proper explanations of functions. I only regret my lack of access to shop equipment since I retired Thank you for the effort and time you put into this, I know this will help a lot of folk who are not tradesmen.

Very helpful indeed !! Thank You Sir

Thanks for the information

Great Video ! Well explained and the visual too ! Keep it up !! I have 2 426 D , and one 426 B , a 413 B , a 424 dual fuel and a 425 ! Love them all

Thank you. You showed me exactly what I was looking for. A complete break down and maintenance of the stove.

Just overhauled my 425e also. Great video.

Great narration and editing. Well done sir!

Absolutely phenomenal video.

Great video,thanks

Outstanding presentation. I am so thankful.
