Can petrol be used for cooking in place of LPG?

Not exactly, propane {LPG} uses an open flame for cooking, same as Natural Gas or wood fires or butane stoves. To use petrol, {oil, or natural gasoline, or even bitumen tar} special stoves are used that do not expose the food to the fumes from the flame. Much like a wood stove, coal stove or pellet stove, these stoves are sealed and you cook atop a cast iron or soapstone stovetop much like you would an electric stove. ** natural gasoline a.k.a. white gas or Coleman stove fuel, is highly volatile and not recommended for indoor use. "Coleman" stoves using white gas, are specifically designed for the use of a pot which separates the fumes from the food. These stoves are expressly designed for camping and have been generally replaced with propane stoves. ***Sterno fuel is jellied "natural gas" or more correctly methyl alcohol (poisonous), some similar fuels use ethanol as well. It is not petrol.


What do gas stoves run on?

Gas cook stoves use Propane also called LPG which stands for Liquid Propane Gas or Liquified Petroleum Gas in rural areas not served by Natural Gas(NG). LPG is stored in large cylindrical tanks on site. They also run on Natural Gas which is a mixture of petroleum gasses delivered by a network of underground pipes. These stoves often need a low cost kit to be converted to use one gas or the other. Gas camping stoves can run on propane, butane, or a mixture of the two. There are also models that use so called white gas or Coleman fuel, a petroleum product similar to gasoline. A few models that burn white gas may also burn unleaded gasoline, or even kerosene, diesel, or jet fuel.
