Same here Murph. (Except for the Jon-E handwarmer.)
I spent part of my USN enlistment (1954 - 1957) on a Fleet Oiler/Tanker/Sea Going Gas Station - the USS Allagash AO97.
We refueled ships at sea including aircraft carriers where we would supply them with aviation fuel for their prop driven aircraft.
Aviation fuel worked fine in our Zippo lighters.
