What's wrong with a plain ol' 5 gallon gas can from Kmart?
Wonder why they charge more depending on the color?
Do you know why they are not allowed? Some safety thing I guess?Baketech : Same reason I didn't buy discount condoms when I was a kid....its false economy...
Edit:
That, and some of the local tracks we go to do not allow them.....
Does race gas eat styrofoam? I know avgas doesn't...pump does.Mattress : styrofoam works great for fuel containers
Avjet fuel does not contain many of the petroleum distillates present in gas. It also has a flame point that is much less than gas.Mattress : Dunno, wonder why avgas doesn't, maybe it's all the additives in pump gas that eats it up.
I wish that was it for me...I lost a bet.Mattress : I poured some gas in a styro cup at the sand dunes once to clean out a dirtbike carb when I first found out. My bike was about 30 feet away from the gas can so I just poured it in....it didn't make it to the bike
I must have a 'good' cheap one! It only leaks if I don't pull it out the nozzle good.ccwilli3 : those cheap ones have always leaked while pouring... On my bike, on me, it sucks...
Yes...but I think it has less to do with safety....and more to do with the contingency money that Jaz and VF shell out...02FBlade : Seriously, are that not legal at some tracks?
That looks pretty handy....lateapex : I just recently saw some real similiar to the Jaz but with two handles. One in the traditional position and one in the vertical corner to the jug. That way you don't have to put your hand undet the jug when your pouring and risk getting gas over your hands. Dunno if these are the exact ones I saw or not but this is the idea...
