Absolutely not, you should only use Zippo Lighter fluid. If you're in a pinch, Ronson lighter fluid works too.

∙ 13y agoYes, you can use all purpose lighter fluid in a Zippo, however, Zippo Inc. does not recommend it.
Yes you can, but for some odd reason, Charcoal Starter dries and goes ALOT faster than Zippo fuel, but yes, Charcoal Starter works just as well, and Naphthaline is a Main Ingredient of Zippo Mixture, they sell Naptha just for this sort of thing.
Yes, and many newsagents sell the official Zippo lighter fluid, as well as other brands (Swan etc). yes pretty much. You can also use Ronsonol lighter fluid.
any lighter fluid, except for bic lighter fluid
Use can use any naptha lighter fluid in a Zippo. This may not be what you would identify as "normal," however; the more modern Bic lighter and many others use butane. Butane absolutely won't work in a Zippo. I'm not sure what would happen, but it could be anywhere from not working at all to a fiery explosion.
No would use normal fluid
Es ronsons is zippo brand to so yes it works great
To the original poster, your answer is incomplete. Here is MSDS statistics about Zippo fluid. 100% VM & P Naphtha VM&P=Varnish Makers and Painters Essentially it is Paint Stripper
No you can't. H2O2 is not flammable, it is an oxidizer.
No, it is not recommended to use lamplight lamp oil in a Zippo lighter as it can cause damage to the lighter. Zippo lighters are designed to be used with Zippo lighter fluid or similar fuels specifically formulated for them. Using a different type of fuel can result in poor performance and potential safety hazards.
When using charcoal, I prefer to use the ready to light kind so that you don't have to worry about messing with lighter fluid.
preferably you should use official zippo light fluid but another you can use is basic lighter fluid.
I wouldn't recommend it because the lighter fluid is just a liquid and the normal jet lighter fuel is a compressed gas. Having the gas compressed forces the gas out with the perfect amount of pressure. If you just put a liquid in it, it will just sit there and not do anything; maybe if you pressurize it and then make it into a fine mist when it comes out then it might work, but it wouldn't be too practical because it would be cheaper to buy butane than mod your lighter.
