Flea market finds

Postby jeporter25 » Sun Jun 10, 2012 6:28 pm

I picked up a couple of items today at the flea market.

220E with an amber globe and an AGM 2572
With a little tinkering while my boy was taking a nap I was able to get them both working.
The AGM has a Coleman Globe and i think the vent is from a 220 coleman as well.

Nice lanterns ! I have one each just like those. I just got the 220 running. The AGM that I have has stress cracks. :x
I am going to make a frankin lantern out of it. Like the amber globe to. :thumbsup:

The vent on the 2572 is proably correct here is mine in burgandy they look the same even my 3016 looks like a 242 vent real close but just a little bit different. I dont have my E close by to compare but I think the hole pattern is a little different.Looks like you had a good weekend.

If your lanters had stress cracks you would know it. They would be leaking fuel. They look kinda like a hair going vertical along the tank. Sometimes hard to see, but the pool of fuel is unmistakable. Just don't go crazy over-pumping. If your lantern is working fine you are pprob O.K.

There is a chain going to the cap on the AGM which i thought was cool, but it meant that I had to replace the gasket instead of just replacing the cap.
