I had a guy screw with me once about putting gas in a diesel can and
that is the same can, just yellow.


Is there some Department of Transportation regulation that requires gas
cans to be red and the corresponding cans for diesel fuel to be yellow?


Not Fed DOT that I'm aware of but CA CARB does require portable
red/yellow/blue for gasoline/diesel/kerosene. Hence, manufacturers must
follow suit to sell product in California...
