Best Answer

DO NOT USE gasoline in a Coleman lantern. Gasoline is highly combustible and might explode in your face. Use only approved fuel for Coleman lanterns.

Some of the Coleman stoves are duel fuel which is Coleman fuel or unleaded gas. Either way, Check with Coleman first!!.

You actuality can burn gasoline in ANY Coleman lantern. However it does not burn as clean, and it can cause buildup in the generator. This is not a major issue it can easily be cleaned with acetone. Thrust me this does work and it is safe. I have been burning gas in all of my Coleman stoves and lanterns for the last 15 years and I have never had any problem. ( do not use kerosene )
