OTOH if I recall correctly, it has a really lousy octane, like maybe 50. A
Model T might run on it, but I wouldn't try it in any car newer than that.
Because of the regenerative process used to pressurize the tank on some
Coleman appliances; and some of the catalyst-based heaters that use it,
Coleman fuel has to be very pure. It's also kind of expensive to use as
motor fuel.
