You can use "Heet" (gas line antifreeze) in the yellow bottle as fuel. Don't get the Red bottle as it causes the bottom of your pot to be covered with soot. A 12 oz bottle of Heet usually runs .99 to 1.25  Heet does quite well as a fuel

  Hi Gang,

While doing my ALDHA field work I noticed that Trents 
Grocery sold denatured alcohol and Coleman by the gallon only. But they 
did have STP gas treatment on the shelf in those little bottles. I have 
cooked with alcohol for years but have never used the gas treatments. In 
fact I use denatured alcohol for gas treatment in my car instead of 
buying those little bottles. Is this STP what some of you use for 
cooking? I need to know if it should be included in the Hikers Companion.

thanks
chase
