    Hello Cadillake, welcome to the forum.

    For pre-heat or priming, alcohol (álcool desnaturado).
    For fuel, petroleum/paraffin/kerosene (petróleo).

    If you are experiencing any trouble in making or keeping your Lusalia alight, this forum with many experienced and knowledgable folk will gladly help I am sure.
    Good luck!
