I have a couple old Coleman lanterns of my dads that haven't been used in 20 years. A 220D and 228F. They look pretty good but looks like the gasket or whatever on the fuel filler cap may be bad. I don't know much about working on them and would like to bring them to the Dam Gathering and try and get them working and I see you mentioned you may be able to look at some lanterns and help get them working. Should I bring them and maybe somebody can help me with them?
I've only used a propane lantern, which I'm bringing, so I'm not sure if they are good to light and I'm a little leery of trying to light them myself for the first time, but I'd like to see if they will work.
Looking forward to the gathering! Looks like great weather.

But truly, just the simple fact that you enjoy Coleman SOOOO much, and give back to others in the furtherance of your hobby is a treat and so entertaining for others to see and enjoy. All I was trying do was encourage you and show support for that. No pressure. You are, after all, "the master".
You're the man!

Thanks a bunch! I've got them packed. They look pretty good so hopefully it will be easy to get them running. There should be some old pics in my album on page 6 or so. I don't need them all sparkly and shiny, at least not yet. Plus as Yoda says, I will be an adoring fan if you get them to work!

If I fail Michele I will at least share my Sees Candy with you.
