I have a Coleman "Dual Fuel" Stove (model 533) that we use on DXPeditions.
This uses either the special fuel that you describe or LEAD-FREE-GASOLINE.
Great for use in those out-of-the-way places.
As it says on the box :-
These specially designed appliances not only use clean-burning Coleman Fuel,
but will also burn ordinary unleaded fuel as well.
