How to light an MSR whisperlite stove

- The MSR whisperlite stove is an ingenious invention, turning a liquid fuel source into a gas and then burning like a gas stove.
This is the MSR whisperlite international, and burns a variety of fuels including shellite (white gas), kerosene and propane gas.
You need different jets for the different fuels though. It com,es standard with the shellite jet.
Here is a link to where you can but this stove online. It is not cheap, but it a very good quality reliable stove that will last you a very long time.

Good job Robbie I've been trying to find one of these videos that I can understand. And now I've watched this video I understand how to do it
Thanks heaps mate. I use to have one but it was different. I only bought this one recently and had trouble with that locking hinge which is why I put a lot of emphasis on it. Nobody else seemed to say much about it.
Nice demonstration. I have an early 90's vintage MSR International (from before the shaker jet was introduced). This was a time when you had to learn by doing - there were no instructional videos like there are now.
In almost every video I've watched on YT, people are in too much of a hurry to start the fuel flow before the stove is properly primed (with the expected flare-up). If you're doing it right, the stove will tell you when it's time to open the valve - you just have to learn to recognise it. Here, you've used just the right amount of fuel to prime it and waited the right length of time before opening the fuel valve.
Love your back yard! Only 1 annoying neibour.... gold!! I got em on every point of the compass..all a mere wisper away
Keep the good work up Robbie 👍👍👍👍
Thanks so much mate.
i've had my (white gas) model for 40 years...very reliable and rugged...i carry a 1 liter bottle for 3-4 day backpacking trips, but could easily switch to a half-liter (i probably won't because it's the original bottle, and has held up as well as the stove)...
Cool stove. I could see myself burning down a few tents with that one.🤣🤣🤣🍻🍻🍻
Hahahaha Thats funny. LOL
Hi Robbie, that's the same principle as the old kero primus stoves and blowlamps. We used to light them with metho to heat them up. I still have a couple in my shed, along with a blow lamp.
Interesting, lighting it reminds me of lighting an old Tilly lantern that we used to use when surf fishing at night as a kid. Lol makes me sound old.
Hahaha that sounds like a lot of fun though. LOL
You AIN'T the only 1!
Sure aint. You know you are getting old when your back goes out more often than you do .....
Thanks Robbie!!! 👍 🤔Not only have you shown me how to light this contraption.... BUT you have also convinced me not to get one, knowing me 🤦♂️ I’m liable to start another🔥 Wild 🔥Bush 🔥Fire🔥🤷🏻♂️🤪
Hahahaha that was never the intention. Hahaha They're am awesome stove.... trust me in this one. LOL
ANOTHER?
Great instruction
Thanks mate.
That's a pretty cool stove, you don't see many like that these days. I bet it cooks just as good as a home stove though!
Haha sure does mate. Probably faster if anything. LOL
It dosent have simmer control so how can it work like Home gas stove 😅😂, it is full on or full off. If you want a full flame control go for MSR simmer lite. I have it and it has plenty of flame 🔥 control 😊
I was like what???? Until it settled down haha, I've never seen one before
Wow though you would have had several of them 😂
Haha I had one years ago. Absolutely loved it. These are very popular with long distance hikers as there's no need to carry heaps of gas cylinders.
I think the pony wanted some food 😂 the way he was looking at the camera haha
Hahaha he is probably use to ky kids feeding him grass. LOL
They are crackers of stoves they work in all weather temperatures unlike the portable Butane which don't in cold conditions. Still got 2 of them types of stoves that i bought years ago.
Absolutely spot on Greg. They dont freeze like the gas stoves.
Thanks Robbie never seen one before
Thanks Jaron, these things are really cool and popular among hikers/hunters etc that like hiking and camping. That's because theyre very efficient, not too heavy and don't take up huge amounts of space in your backpack.
@@robbiefishing might have to try one when we can camp again
Insanely helpful video. Thank you
Hi Bill, thanks for watching. I"m glad you found it helpful. 👍👍
Almost burned down the house testing mine out years ago. Fire extinguishers should be in every home.
Good stuff
Thanks mate.
Shellite is close to kerosene we used old style ones when camping as a kid. Old brass ones.
Ahh OK, thanks Gary. I always thought kerosene was much less flammible. To be honest, I don't think I have ever used it so I am not sure how I drew to that conclusion. LOL
@@robbiefishing NOT like kero. It's highly refined petrol! REMEMBER my burnt hand vid from a few years back? THAT was the result of a FLASH burn from shellite fumes combusting! Kerosene is more like diesel, oily and usually does NOT burn on its own without wicking!
Would like to see a METHO jet one!
There good,had one thirty odd years ago when in scouts,so good the bloke I lent it to still got it, was your bottle 19.99 or 49.99 can't quite make out the sticker?
Poor Jaffa at the end," Dad your paying more attention to that digital box in your hand then me, I'm right here.lol Cheers Craig 🍻⛏️🎣
Cool little stove 👍
Thanks Blake. I netter cook another Lean Cuisine meal, this time on the shellite stove and see how it tastes. LOL
hi robby love the videos
Hu Sladen, thanks so much buddy.
Awesome mate 👍 I needed this info
Thanks for watching Craig.
This is GREAT for yummy, out door cook ups!
Sure is mate. I cooked my tea outside tonight on that very table. Its amazing how food cooked outdoors always seems to taste nicer. LOL
@@robbiefishing Yep. It's the FRESH air!
Nice video, your one of the best.
Thank you so much mate.
nice video robbie, thanks for the info
Thanks so much mate.
Nice video,. Thank you.
Hi mate, thanks for watching.
Fuel boils at around 43°c
Not bad Robbie!!!
Thanks heaps mate.
Hi Rabbie.. why they dont make the feeder tube 15.cm longer I dont know,far to short.
0:03 LUCKIEST NEIGHBOR EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hahaha I do not know my neighbour. He seems nice enough, but I swear he watches me and wait for me to set up my camera gear before starting his generator. Hahahaha
I am a bit suspicious of those sorts of things Robbie, after the uncle I used to go fishing with blew something like that up when we were camping on the Edwards one year. Who owns the pony's that sneeked up to the fence and had a squiz a few minutes in?
Oh dear... that would certainly be scary.
I'm not sure who owns them Phil but they're very friendly.
I know the bloke that owns the land but they're not his i don't think.
My kids love oatting them over the fence.
Bloody ripper stove Robbie! What do they go for?
Thanks UF, theyre quite expensive. I think it was around $220. I cant remember exactly because I bought a few other odds and ends.
The propane/butane gas stoves are much cheaper, but buying gas cannisters all the time is much more expensive.
If you use them all the time, these work out cheaper in the long run.
@@robbiefishing Ok, Those can stoves ARE good, I have several, and the gas DOES last a while! I can get a 4 pack for $3-5. Last me a few trips!
Seems they got the SAME idea/principle from/of the EVAPOURATIVE fuel injection system!
Remember that? A mob in Melb came up with it & got an old 202 VK to do 60mpg!
THAT disappeared quickly didn't it? NEVER heard about it AGAIN!
Do you pump it down or stop where you feel resistance?
How often do you have to pump air into it Robbert ?
Hey Jinda,
I put around 20 or so initial pumps to light it as in this video. Usually that will keep it going while I boil water. If I'm frying, every once in a while the flame will start to weaken a bit so I will give it another pump, but its not often. Its not like it's every minute or so. LOL
My daughter wants to know if those horse's are yours?
No they're not ours, they belong to someone else but my kids give them a lot of pats and cuddles. Often when we are outside they come over and say hello. Very friendly, beautiful animals.
@@robbiefishing thanks Robbie. Love your dog too. Is he/she a bull terrier?
Don’t know about too dangerous for kids I reckon be too dangerous for me burn my beard off or eyebrows or something hahahaha
Hahaha I have often wondered if beards are flammable. LOL
How can they name this stove whisperlite 😂😅 when its loud as hell
Hahaha how ironic.
@@robbiefishing right, better get optimus Polaris with silencer cap, or MSR simerlite with ton of flame control
Not for me then lol.
Hahaha Has us safer.... but not as efficient or easy to carry around.
