    Very nice!!!! In my opinion the 413 was the best stove they ever made.

      Timm... calling Timm.



      Buddy of mine gave me a couple of lanterns, a stove , and another stove that I have never seen...

      One lantern, a 220F is in rough shape. The tank looks to have rust and junk in it.

      Afore I tear it down, and replace the generator, pump, and fuel cap,,,

      Is there any way to clean the tank??

      Numbers on bottom, 5—56.

                  Metal rescue will clean out the font or vinegar. Let it sit for few hours drain and repeat

                  Cool find

                      I have a decent collection of old lanterns, stoves and heaters. I love getting them back together and working. I typically give them as Fathers day gifts, eagle scout gifts, etc. I always think about the stories attached to the lanterns. If only they could speak....

                          Thank you sir. I will try this next week when I’m off.

                          Want to see if font is salvageable afore replacement of other parts.
