That came out really nice. I haven't been taking my collection apart. I save the parts lanterns off to the side and display the clean ones. It is the perfect crime...they look great and they don't make me work. tHanks for the video!
Beautiful lantern Sir. 😀👍✝️
@creek_camper Thank you, sir. God bless.
Hi Rob. My 1940 500 doesn't like to have a pot put on it until it's all warmed up and going.. I enjoy learning from your experiences....
@michaelcullinsmcrcullinsgm9146 All of these stoves and lanterns are the same but completely different. They may be the same brand and model number manufactured on the same day at the same factory but completely different. They all tend to have their own character over the years. Is it the way they have been used over the years? The fuel they get used to? I don't know. They are all just different. My 500 runs great on first fire with or without a pot. I've seen others that need the pot to hold the heat before it will burn properly. I have some lanterns that you have to pump full pressure before you can get them to fire. I have others that will not push nothing but air if you give them more than 5 or 6 pumps. But with the 5 pumps, they will fire right up, and then you can pump full pressure. Thanks for watching, and God bless.
Sweet
@mdenny6044 Thanks for watching, and God bless
That’s sweet brother!
@Dominic.Minischetti Thanks, my friend. God bless.
got it looking good. need to send you that 502 i got to have you clean up for me.
Great work as always
@RichStover-l5r Thank you, and God bless.
I rebuild those style generators with brass, or steel wool. Lot easier than messing with that glass rope. Works great with gas or kero. 👍
@serpent6710 I just use what I have on hand, and it works for me. I don't have the brass mesh, and I'm not a big fan of the steel wool. I have used the brass mesh in the past, and it works really well. Thanks for watching, and God bless.
Beautiful lantern Robert ! Interesting design too , I will go back to look for the previous ash flash video .God bless have a good week
@scotthayward996 Thank you, sir. God bless you.
I’m currently rebuilding my first 200 now. Had to order a new generator. Needle was broken on it. It was in pretty bad shape I’m excited to see it finished. This video helps me out a lot Thank you sir. 😀👍✝️
Awesome 😀👍✝️
Honest and genuine question. I forgot where I saw this . But I think someone had one of those white gas or kerosene lanterns but replaced the mantles with a fine fine steel mesh and without a globe I believe it stopped producing light but it turned it into a small space heater. Just think that idea is neat and curious if it’s a good or dumb idea Wouldn’t blame you if you made it or made a video making one God bless Happy new year
@otherwill2202 I don't recall seeing it, but it does make sense. The older heater has a round wire screen that produces the heat. I might have to give this a try someday. Thanks, and God bless.
At first glance, I thought it was Tom Servo!
@Pygar2 Thanks for watching, and God bless.
Looks like that ceramic burner is from a Bernzomatic dual beam lantern that has been swapped for the original.
@jerryberryhill3619 I guess that's possible. I'm no expert on these. I just enjoy bringing them back to life. I have seen other Coleman lanterns online with the ceramic cap, but I honestly have no clue if they were Coleman or not. God bless.
Awesome work
@@RichStover-l5r Thanks and God bless.
@ I love watching you I’ve learned a lot from you thanks
@RichStover-l5r Thank you, sir. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Nice job! It looks great! I have a 200a that the wife picked up a few years ago with the yellow stripe logo. Ill have to do a closer inspection on it and see if it's unique like yours. I hope you have a great New Year. I put your October Meet-up in my calendar for next year. So God willing andvthe Creek don't rise, Ill be able to attend! 👍🏻😎🔥🧀
@CheezeheadChris The yellow band label was found on the early 50s models if I'm not mistaken. Hopefully, we will see you this fall. God bless
Great job as always, Merry christmas and happy new year ! Take care 🙂
@matthewmahalic3562 Same to you, my friend. God bless.
can it come back to life, watch and find out. another great one. need to take apart that 502 stove i got to get it to burn better
@HarshmanHills Thanks, James. If you need any pointers with the 502, just message me. God bless.
Sweet
@glennking8206 Thanks for watching, and God bless.
Awesome job Robert! Beautiful lantern , must be like a special edition with the nickel and ceramic burner . Not the normal 200 for sure . I’m sure there is others that know more about it then me . God bless
@scotthayward996 Not sure if it is a special edition but a very early model of the 200a. I'm not sure which was first? The black band or the galvanized collar 🤔 After these two, they cut costs a little and went to aluminum. Thanks for watching, and God bless.
First

Vent is perfect 😮

@derpydog1008 Thanks for watching, and God bless.
i picked one up the otherday... havent gone thru it yet... thanks
@waikikirod Thanks for watching, and God bless. Any questions feel free to ask, and I will try to help.
Do you purchase vintage coleman stoves?
@WaynJul On occasion, but not often. The box stoves just take up way too much room. I'm kinda partial to the older single burner stove, but with the hobby growing with everyone like it is, it's really driving the price up. I've been wanting a 520, but I'm not willing to pay what they want on eBay. God bless.
I prefer to soak things like this in WD-40. The Petroleum Distillates break it all up, the gums and varnishes from fuel. If moisture has been a problem you can also soak it for a couple days in White Vinegar. The acetic acid will dissolve corrosion. Then test it to see if the check ball seals. Either method for a couple days. You can't rush accomplishment it just cause more headaches. You try and if it does not work then buy a new part, not worth an electrical blackout or ruined camping trip. The valve is about $20 and the Tool $30 E-bay $50 Amazon Coleman Double END Check Universal Valve Removal Tool Fits Wide Narrow Slots 220b and Up for 1/4-32 and 8/32 Check Valve Stems
@stur.7502 The wd40 dose works well for the gums and varnish but 99%of the time you will have a heavy tarnish that the wd40 will not remove and I did use a check valve tool to pull it and put it in the vinegar to remove it. The first part of the video was just to help out someone who doesn't have a tool to do the job. There are a lot of beginners and people who might only have one lantern they would like to make run again without having to invest in the tool or can't afford to. Thanks for watching, and God bless.
@@colemanrestorationsrepair4171 Thanks for the reply back! We just had a maga outage for three days. My lantern started having pressure leak issues as in the tank pressure would run down rather quickly. I found the valve stem graphite packing to be very loose. Man, for the cost of rebuilding i could buy a new lantern, however i don't like new things so i will just machine the tool and get what is necessary to get it back to top notch. I forgot to mention that as far as the 3-piece cap seal goes, that also can be soaked in WD-40 to help plump or swell it up in an emergency situation to create a more positive seal. Seems like e-bay sellers have most of these parts and the cheapest i found Coleman Brand fuel was at ACE hardware stores, less than $20 gallon
@stur.7502 good to know on soaking the fuel seal in Wd40. I haven't tried that.
Just on the whole, there is either a flat rubber washer or gasket ie...200A Lantern like a water faucet gasket and then there are actual Buna or Nitrile type actual O-Rings that are round, not flat.
Great job
@colemanrestorationsrepair4171 where did you get that great little Coleman tool box? GOD Bless you and your family
Where can I buy the Mica to replace it? Thank you George
Good morning Rob
Tenho um lampião Coleman antigo tem interesse em comprar e a gás
