I hate the new fuel cans with the super safe configuration as much as anyone. Son came home today with an interesting alternative.
He went by an automotive performance shop and spied a 5 gallon racing fuel container which he bought. This thing is awesome. It has a removable top which is maybe 3 inches across. Inside the top cap is a fitting for a 3/4 pipe fitting. You can install a plastic nipple and hose if you like. It also has a vent cap that can be opened.
The entire container is some type of heavy plastic that the shop guys say last 25 or 30 years. The mfg. is Scribner Plastics.
I am looking forward to putting this to use to see how it compares with those awful super safe 5 gallon containers.
Has anyone else actually used them. Any drawbacks?
