Coleman 242 generator

Hi fellas,
Dose anyone know . Is there any difference between a 242 Kero and 242 shellite generators,
Australian made / Canada made
If there is please let me know
Thanks fellas

 

Hi Darryl - the 242K used a .006 tip and the 242 a .007 tip. You may be OK with a regular 242 gen or possibly
try the jet from a 201 generator which I think is the required size.

 

I just checked the Coleman gen list and the 201 gen is the replacement for a 242K gen.

 

@peterthevet thank you for the information, I have ask on the behalf of a fella who is having issues, I’ll pass it on,
Thank you

 

0.007" seems rather small for a Shellite lantern; is that correct? Just checking on the 242, 242A and 242B as I have one that is misbehaving presently.

 

Yep the above is correct.
242 .007
282/285 .0075
220 .008
295 .009
236 .0095

 

It’s a 242B if this makes any difference

 

Thanks @peterthevet

 

I reference this often for Coleman generator details.
