Xikar is good. Basically, you want a fuel that is heavily refined (purified). Vector is also very good. The good fuels are refined at least 5 ("quintuple") times.

I heard that Lava is very good and am trying that out -- so far so good (even better than Vector). It takes time to find out if a fuel is good or not -- the goal is to find a good enough fuel so that the lighter's jets do not get clogged over time.
