- A video tutorial on maintaining and servicing your MSR® XGK™ stove.
For over 35 years, the MSR® XGK™ stove has been the world's most reliable extreme-condition stove; trusted by mountaineers everywhere. The XGK EX stove continues that legacy with unrivaled performance, dependability and better multi-fuel burning capabilities than any other stove on the market. It features a flexible fuel line that allows it to pack smaller than ever, as well as stable, retractable legs and pot supports, and a powerful flame that melts snow and boils water incredibly fast. No matter where you're headed, with an XGK EX stove along, you'll find fuel to burn and the absolute dependability that has made it the first choice in liquid fuels stoves on expeditions for decades.

Jet fuel is basically kerosene but aviation fuel is often leaded gasoline (high octane) not sure about fumes on that.
Always make sure it doesn't have a Leak. I caught my hand on fire once because fuel stared shooting out of the stove
This multi fuel stove is useful and easy,
What would be a good storage container to put the stove and fuel pump into while backpacking? I find that the black bag it comes with is too thin and the sharp edges of the stove can easily puncture through and puncture/scratch items in the backpack or potentially tear the backpack itself. I've included it inside a bear canister before. Big mistake as the scent of white gas penetrated the food.
I bought my XGK in 1985. From the start I contained it in a (seperately bought) strong cordura pouch Specially reserved for this stove only. Also storing a 1 liter liquid container and a XGK maintenance package in this pouch. I still use this same same pouch and it is dirty as hell on the inside, but it is supposed to be dirty. This pouch has d-loops and could be attached to the outside of the backpack. But I kept it in the side pocket of my backpack.
It works like a charm and I don't have to worry about the (fuel vapors and soot) mess.
Strangely enough, I cannot find this type of pouch anywhere easy on the internet. All the pouches I did find are either made of too thin fabrics or have some fancy organizer compartments in the pouch. Something unnecessary and unwanted for this purpose. But you can make it yourself. See:

I am a (Dutch) backpacker and walked the PCT at the time (1986). Even then there were lighter options. So why did I choose the heavy XGK with such a large fuel bottle?
Reasons:
1. I wanted something to work at all altitudes in all temperatures within all weather conditions on the total length of the PCT.
2. As a last emergency resort scenario I wanted to be able to start a wood fire even in wet conditions (easy to do with liquid fuel ... when done properly).
3. The fuel for the XGK is far more common, thus easier to obtain, than gas cannisters.
4. As to the one liter fuel bottle capacity ... the extra weight compared to, let's say, a 300 ml fuel bottle is negligible with respect to the total stove system weight (which admittingly, as a whole, is heavy compared to modern superlight gas stoves). I could either opt for extra fuel for multiple PCT sections or calculate how much fuel I actually needed for a section.
Note: I never bothered to calculate. I ended up using a full bottle of fuel for just about every section.
As to making pancakes or an omelette using an XGK ...
I have done that too! I merely hold the pan some height above the stove when at full throttle. It is labour intensive and a waste of fuel but it can be done (done occasionally) and I did do so.
Dear WordsofWisdom2010, I use it for six (6) hours in row and nothing happen. Of course I do a check before and after every outdoor action. I have it since 2005.
That flame spreader does not come out that easily. Mine is a pain to remove. Had a death grip on the stove.
Is it worth upgrading from the XGK II 1998 to the new XGK EX? From what I can tell only the pot stand and flexible fuel line are the differences?
I still have an MSR X-GK from ~1988, are these kits compatible ?
My MSR XGK-EX clogged and I am unable to remove the cable. I have used it for around 30 times with unleaded petrol. How can I remove the cable? Acetone did not help. What else can I use?
WD 40 ? Do you try flush with white gas ?

Question: is there a maximum safe operating time for this stove? In other words, do i have to worry about this thing melting or exploding if i run it for too long, say for an hour? Or can i run it for any length of time?

No, I don't think so. I've run it for long periods. Turns dull orange. The alloy is high temp. Probably Inconel or something similar.

Can the liquid stoves also simmer
you can simmer with the xgk by priming it then turning it off and depressurising the bottle. When you relight it with very low pressure it can simmer. The MSR dragonfly is the only liquid fuel stove available that can simmer without altering the pressure.
Go with me on a journey. Say you had a MSR whisperlite stove. Your partner has a MSR XKG. Say your partner's bag was filthy and the filters on both his pumpswere trash. Say he put your pumps in his bag, so yours are dirty too. Say you brought an expedition repair kit, which you both should have, but he didn't.Say you were down to 1 good normal pump and 1 probably good cold wx pump. What would happen if you just ripped filters off of the other pumps? Would they work?
