Doing a little cleaning out garage. Took all fuel cans outside. Looked at
bottoms of old metal kerosene dans, decided to put some rust converter on.
I was filling up various polyethylene cans, with oil and or fuel
stabilizers, cleaners. Added cap ffull of alcohol to kerosene.

Putting cans back in garage. Then I noticed full can of kerosene leaking on
bottom.
Wiped up mess, then started transferring into almost empty kerosene tank.
To day I start filling polyethylene blue container with kerosene.

I just got this container about two years ago. O ring fall out, broken, two
other parts, and darn if I can get anything out of the spout. My intentions
are to buy two water containers for my kerosene. I can't deal with these
new no spill cans, i can't even get anything out. I use a pump to get
kerosene anyway.

The other thing, I'm going to keep all fuels out of garage.

bulbs..Brought to you by the moonbats and environuts...At some point there

I bet the ones that came up with the new cans never have to use them.

These cans are a perfect example of why you should not let the idiots in
government mandate things. I've spilled more gas with blurping from
these stupid cans than I ever did from the old cans.

Anybody know if the old style cans can be purchased in Canada?

I'll be heading up north in a few weeks and might just pick up a few
(for my own use, of course) if they haven't converted yet.

You criticize me for suggesting to give a tree owner back his own wood, and
then propose violation of international law, smuggling across national
borders? Pot, kettle......

I just did this fix to six of my gas containers today. It seems to
work pretty good.

I wonder if there are *very* different designs. I rather like the last couple
of gas "cans", I've bought. I don't spill with either and they're far more
"secure" than the can's I've had in the past.

I wonder how you would hold a 5 gallon can, push in on the spout, while
balancing the funnel, and squeezing trying to get flow?

"Squeeze"? It's not a ketchup bottle. ;-) My 1-gal has a flow control
valve; quite nice to fill my weed-whacker. My 2-1/2 gal doesn't but it does
have a "overflow" tube, which I find quite convenient.

I forgot, there is also a kerosene shortage here. I guess the jets are
using it up.
