can zippo lighters be refilled with butane or does it have to be zippo lighter fluid?

Question: would charcol lighter fluid work?

Answer: It has to be lighter fluid. Like others have said, it does not have to be a "name brand" lighter fluid. Any old lighter fluid will do. When I was in the military during the Vietnam War, we used to sometimes use gasoline in Zippo lighters. I do not recommend it. It is not good for the lighter and it causes the lighter to give off a lot of black smoke. There is something "classic" about using a Zippo lighter. It brings back a lot of old stories and memories.
