I have an older "Coleman" style white-gas lantern. My parents got it back around '65. It has worked well on campouts and hunting trips for a long time.
It seems to be burning yellowish lately, especially compared to the newer Coleman we have. Same gas, same mantles(both are dual mantel lanterns. The new one is bright white, but the old one is yellowish. It does not seem to have any soot or anything to indicate a rich condition.
Is there anything that can be cleaned, blown out, or? It has a generator number on the side. Do those go bad? Looking at it, which tube is the generator?
