Re: Cooker, meths or petrol.
I've a Coleman screw on gas burner, had it for about 10yrs now, never let me down, well apart from in France when I couldn't get a screw on gas canister!
 So, I bought an adapter which screws on to my Coleman and converts it to take clip on camping gaz canisters!  So now it takes both clip on or screw on cans I can always find gas. Admittedly gas is scarce in outer Mongolia but I've no plans to go there in the near future! But I think I'd just take extra gas with me if I did! I've watched petrol burners in action and find them terrifying!

Re: Cooker, meths or petrol.
yep Vaude do an adaptor but they keep that fact quiet!
The pierce to use gas cans are to be phased out so i am told on safety grounds, the screw on type is a wierd thread (beleive it or not its 7/16" UNEF  ) but it is common to the screw on gas cartridges that come with some of the more common diy blow torches... My new omnifuel turned up today so i will be playing with as many different fuels as i can find over next few weeks. Trying it with unleaded pump fuel its a bit of a monster compared with the coleman... sounds like a jet engine at full whellie  If you want seriously dodgy fuel in an omnifuel!

Hmmyeah, the old optimus hunter was a rather uncivilised beast...
Mine drowns out 747s doing a 90 degree turn overhead 10 miles away from Schiphol.
