I'm a big fan of these little gas stoves. I like that name, SuperFuel, it just sounds like anything else is no good. However, it's all white gas: just pure gasoline before any additives. I stick with Coleman fuel myself. If you find the need to ever put unleaded fuel in your fuel bottle, you better figure out what you're doing wrong and avoid the outdoors until you do. You're asking for a nightmare's worth of trouble from your stove. Have you ever seen the gum and varnish that dried up gasoline turns into? You'd be much better served by rounding up a handful of pencil-sized sticks and building a cook fire if you have to. Besides, where are you going to find unleaded fuel in the backcountry anyways?

Works great with white gas and will run, albeit dirtily, on unleaded if you're desperate.Stick with white gas unless it's an emergency. Anything else will work less efficient.
