Resurrecting A Vintage Coleman 413f Camping Stove - Unleash The Power - Take Control

#jessesworkshop #diy #workshop #colemanstove
In this video I take my old Coleman 413F stove apart for a cleaning, and reassembly. Then, after I put it back together I fired it up for the first time. Coleman made the 413F two burner stove from 1961 to 1964. Tons of cooking space and an abundance of heat when turned up. Coleman stoves employ an ingeniously simple design that with proper maintenance will last several lifetimes. The most common versions are the the 413, 425 and 426 "suitcase" stoves.

Great video! I was lucky to get a 426B in Germany, restored it and now it works perfect! Keep up the videos and post an update of those Colemans soon!

Thank you! Glad to hear about your find!

The lighting lever when up blocks off the liquid in the tank and allows the vapor from the top of the tank to pass through the hole at the top so you can light the stove. After about a minute, you can turn the lever down once the generator is warm enough to vaporize the fuel. The lever is not a cleaning rod, like on a lantern.

I took my 432A stove out today filled it with gas and pumped the daylights out of it. Lit it expecting to see the usual 2 foot high yellow flame before the generator warms up. Nope just blue yellow small flames till it warmed up. This stove cost me 15 bucks and works wonderfully .Yes I took it apart and cleaned , sanded , painted , and filled it with gas , but no parts required to fix it! So as it was getting that blue flame I pumped it some more and set my Coleman oven on top. 10+ minutes later it was at 350° and in went a loaf of bread and 22 minutes later done. The stove was on low most of the time and just adjusted to keep the temperature at 350. I could have put my coffee pot on the other burner as there is lots of room. Hmmmn middle rack and still burnt the bottom. So from what I have read I need something on the floor of the oven to distribute the heat better. BTW it was sprinkling out as I was baking! Lots of these on Facebook marketplace and some people have really greedy prices but generally a working Coleman stove is around 15-35 bucks.

Excellent story Bruce! Thanks for sharing, such a great product that every family should have. Try throwing a cast iron pan in the bottom to help with that heat control.

@@JessesWorkshop The alternative was to pick up some flat steel but I just happen to have my old Wagner frying pan that has cracked and leaks . I have not thrown it away for sentimental reasons but you have mow given me a use for it.
