Where in the world do you come up with that "hard on the pump and seals"?

I've been burning unleaded in a dual fuel lantern since the first one they sold. Burn it ice fishing most of the winter for both heat and light. Burn it all year for the same during electrical outages. Burn it for tracking during deer season. Burn it just for fun a lot of evenings to feed the fish under my bridge.

Only disadvantage to unleaded gasoline is it doesn't produce as much light as the same lantern with Coleman fuel or white gas. Can drive to town and buy any one of the three I want with in a block of each other.
