Lamp Oil substitutes
Mineral spirits, or paint thinner containing 100% mineral spirits from
the paint department of your local hardware store is a low cost fuel
for kerosene lamps and stoves. It is cleaner than kerosene, though
likely not quite as odor free as good lamp oil. Usually about
$3/gallon around here.
I would suggest buying a cheap kerosene lamp and testing any "new"
fuel before using it aboard.
