Isn't Coleman fuel what used to be called "White gas" =ie, no additives whatsoever - so that needle valves, small ports, silk mantles and the like would not be messed up by the additives? I seem to remember that the very old AMOCO stations use to always have one pump dedicated to "white gas" which was supposed to burn "Clean".
