Coleman fuel is "White Gas". I think they use pure Naptha these days.

In the old leaded fuel days, if you put gasoline in, the lead would plate out and plug things up. I believe you can use "unleaded" in most camp stoves these days.

Edit: If you choose the "Dual Fuel" Coleman, it will run on unleaded gasoline.
