Great video! I recently found my grandparents old Model 425 in a shed behind their garage. Thanks to this video and the website you mentioned, I confirmed the late 40's/early 50's build date. It hadn't been used since the late 60's. I cleaned the mud dauber nests out, oiled the leather cup, bought a new fuel cap (bad gasket of course), filled with fuel and it fired right up. Works perfectly - can't wait to take it camping. Amazing how the basic design hasn't changed in about 70 years.

Best car camping stove ever. I have one I bought in the late 70's that runs just fine.

I have a 425 E which I bought in 1971 it may have rust but still is very serviceable 👍☀️

Those things don't die. I bought a 425E at Goodwill about 19 years ago for $1.50. It was in rough condition. I completely disassembled it, cleaned it, replaced less than $10.00 worth of parts (including a can of paint). It has run perfectly ever since then. It's funny when I go camping with a group and they all have their propane stoves. Then I whip out my 425 and everyone needs to come over and look at it.

Thank you for a very informative video. I was happy to identify my Coleman Stove (which was originally my grandfather's) as a 425A. I'm going to restore it but have decided against painting it to keep the original patina (might clear coat it for that reason). Again, many thanks...

if you want to drain the fuel tank just use some air tubing that you use for an aquarium air pump. its cheap and you just syphon the gas out. works really good

good info, I heard you fine because I always use ear buds, I recently fell into two E series, one was given to me that I'm going to restore, the burners are very clean, as if hardly used, but it was not stored well, so paint is rusty, any idea if the new one are U.S.A.made? that's a big factor for me, to have products U.S.A made just feels so much better. thanks for the good info. (I guessing new stickers are not available )

I appreciate your time in making this. I just picked up a 425E, and was curious about the year. All I can find for markings is a small, white ink or paint-stamped "1067" in the floor of the case, under the burner rail, and on both tabs of the tank is a little 1, a larger 7, and another little 1. There are no marking or stampings in the bottom of the outer case where your has them. Any guess on it's year? I haven't tried to light it yet, I've got it torn apart for cleaning... Thanks!

Thank you for the info. Do you will use your 425... or too old or unsafe? can you still get parts for the 425 or 425 A? I would like to get one of the old cylinder tanks but worry that I wouldn't be able to rebuild it or get parts if needed. thank you

The 425C is my favorite generation. That's when they started the sprung windshield clips. The legs on the 425 and 425B sucks. They wobble. The 425C and 425D legs are stable.

I recently got a 425 off ebay. Unfortunately, where the generator attaches to the valve is at an angle. ..perhaps cross threaded. I see that generators for this model are available but I can't find and information on the valve. Do you know the part number? Do you know if it is still possible to get a valve for the 425? thank you, mary

I have a question for you. If I have a 425e, could I convert it to dual fuel by adding a 424 pump/generator assembly? Do you know offhand if the tabs on the tank allow mounting the 424 tank?
@ourcynic10 жыл бұрын
You could run gasoline in any of these stoves. They don't have to be dual-fuel. I personally would never do it unless it was an emergency, because gasoline will flavor your food with a gasoline flavor. Even the dual-fuel models will do this. Also, running gasoline will gum up the generator faster than using Coleman Fuel. Just use Coleman Fuel. It's more expensive, but better for the stove and better for your food.

I have a 425E with the original paint and instructions under the lid, date code on stove is 4-74 and the date on the fuel tank is 3-74. its a bit scratched up but with very little actual dings. mostly on the bottom. the only issure i have with it is that the nozzle doesnt seat properly so when lighting the stove the inlet catches on fire, im not worried about an explosion i just want to know how to fox this problem without having to replace the whole assembly?

My father in law gave me his old 425E Coleman stove dated august of 75 on the bottom and it has the style tank with the fuel cap on the end instead of the middle so I'm guessing they changed the tanks somewhere between 75-79

as far back as I can remember we've had one but ours had to be made in the 50's but for those side windshields it was never a thick wire like device but a flat piece with slots which fit into the base, and one more thing, not ONE who do demos on these seem to know that left burner's knob can be pulled out for better control and they fumble around TRYING to raise and lower that side burner's flame!!!ps I do hope Coleman NEVER took blame for all those stupid Morons who DID TRY LIGHTING THIS while it still was flaming!!!

why would you want to drain coleman fuel at the end of season??? Coleman fuel till this day doesn’t go bad like gasoline...... It’s pure fuel w/o ethanol... Great tip, only run coleman fuel in your small 4 stroke engines (lawnmowers/go carts/scooters/generators) and you won’t have to drain those either. or buy a new one when you don’t!
