- If you are not too attached to your fingers and hands, go ahead. It will most likely explode. Zippo fluid burns slower.
- Lighter fluid is all you can use. That's what it's made for.
- Seroiusly, Are you that Lame? No you can't use normal gas......you have to use zippo lighter fluid unless you want to blow yourself up.
- do not go past go or collect 2 hundred dollars on this question. Get some lighter fluid so we do not have another statistics.
- as long as you are careful you can.It will evaporate faster though.
- No alternative, unless you want to pay a visit to your local emergency room.
- Not the brightest crayon in the box, are you?
- umm don't try that just to save a few bucks just get lighter fluid.
- Absolutely not unless you want to kill yourself or get serious burns to your face and hands!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lighters take a type of fuel, like white spirits & nothing else!!! Cheers, either give up smoking if you can't afford the proper fuel...
- it may be alittle risky but yes you can what do you think vietnam soldiers used when they didnt have lighter fluid
- Sure you can. I don't think it is as volatile as people seem to think. It isn't as clean burning and will give off a black smoke. My father, who was over-seas in the army during WW2 said that many of the vehicles had a piece of wire attached close to the fuel tank so the soldiers could hook their Zippos to them and dip them in the fuel tank to fill them up. I seriously doubt that any of them died from a exploding Zippo. ...Good Luck... PS. Something I was not aware of: Zippo's were first produced in 1932, and during WW2 were not available to consumers during the war, but were sent to the military. http://www.zippodirect.com.au/index.html
