Starts Instantly! This Instant Light Preheater now on all models This new Coleman Instant Light Preheater is one of the most remarkable inventions and improvements ever put on any type of liquid fuel stove. It does just what its name implies—lights instantly. All you have to do is touch a lighted match to it, open a valve and its going right now. In less than a minute from the scratch of the match, it generates the stove to full cooking heat—any amount or degree of heat you want for any kind of cooking. You don’t have to preheat this starter with a couple of matches or with a torch—no generating of any kind. It starts going the minute you scratch a match and turn a valve or turn a valve and scratch a match —either way you do it is right—you can’t go wrong —you can’t flood it. There are starters and starters but there is none like the Coleman. It’s different, new and orig inal. It’s on all models of Coleman Cooker Stoves— from the beautiful white porcelain enamel range, clear down to three-burner black enamel hot plate. Come in and see it work.
