Susan,

The white gas or spirit as you call it will indeed work. I have a model traction 
engine that my Grandfather 
scratch built in about 1905 with just that. One of the tanks at the rear holds "camp 
stove fuel" which is pumped 
up just like the old camp stoves. The burner is  rather noisy just as the old stoves 
and lanterns. It does work 
well and I still steam it up on special days. GaryB
