Now that is funny.* Hopefully those bags don't melt!

My thoughts precisely.* I did a stupid thing recently, I was draining
the gas from a small motor and use a plastic picnic cup.* It fit into
the small space and was working perfectly until the bottom dissolved.

I wonder if those base area gasoline soluble?



Exact same happened to me several years ago. I think every thing is
fine until..... ;~)

FWIW, in Texas, possibly for the rest of the country, it is illegal to
store gasoline in anything that is not approved for gasoline storage.


It is. It's also a federal DOT reg. I believe approved containers
have to be red, as well.
