My Coleman propane stove is burning with an orange flame . I changed the regulator but still have the orange flame. Taking off the burner I still get an orange flame.

The pipe from the tank is rusty inside Any Coleman gurus have a fix ? Thanks

I'd guess it is related to not getting enough air but dont know how that stoves blends air and propane to get complete combustion.

I had the same problem with a similar (but cleaner) stove. I'm pretty sure the problem was an obstruction in that burner's pipe. I'd read that spiders sometimes get in there and make a web that blocks gas flow. I never found any specific obstruction but a combination of wire coat hanger and air fixed the problem. Seems to work fine now.
