White gas is a common name for a number of flammable substances:
- As a generic term for camp stove and lantern fuel, its most popular current usage, also called Naphtha, 100% Light Hydro Treated Distillate, or Coleman fuel[1]
- Pure gasoline (without additives), commonly used when leaded gasoline was the norm to prevent fouling in situations where the properties of the lead additive were not required
- Un-dyed gasoline
White gas should not be confused with white spirit, which is more akin to kerosene.
