    This is a Coleman 220K195 in very good condition dated March 1980.

    I thought it would be a very simple job to get it going, but alas, the fuel pickup was blocked, and this required getting the fuel control block unscrewed from the tank. That was a big task because it had been fitted with extremely strong thread sealant. Careful heat, quench, penetrating oil, patience, and brute force eventually won the day.

    @Tony Press Very good condition indeed but you may wish to revise the title. The 5th image clearly shows the month as 4 which is April. :)

    Thanks, Henry!

    My brain was obviously in neutral when I wrote “March”!
