    Gas cans...

    For those that hate the new cans you can buy "automotive fluid" containers at rural king/tractor supply/amazon that have fill tubes and vents.

    I wish I knew this before I bought and converted a bunch of the new horrible cans.

    They have been around for ever and I see a lot of them at the track.
    Very tall though.

    I use VP racing fuel cans and hoses...They are tall though...Risk racing makes fuel cans that I believe are shorter..

    I bought the metal Eagle 5 gallon cans. They work great. Think I paid around $30.

    Wow, just checked they are $47 now. I guess I should have bought another.

    They are $50.00 through tractor supply. I wish I had a rural king around me.

    I got some of these, put a vent hole in the can, pours super smoothly... because my cans are older and didn't come with the newer crazy nozzles therefore are exempt from the new rules that have rendered gas cans useless, that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

    No spill cans are legit. I've had some for nearly 10 years. Only issue I've had were from squirrels chewing the tops.

    My buddy used to have people come into the hardware store where he worked asking if they had purple or orange cans because they like the different colors of gas cans

    Another vote for VP, I paid $35 for them a few years back. Best gas cans I've ever owned.

    I convert my jugs to these and it works well. I do have one of the racing fuel jugs, but it is awkward to use in some instances.

    Ditto on the VP ones, Mr. Gasket also makes a good one and as mentioned Rural King has them as well. I used them in oval dirt racing for years, quite expensive but well worth it. As we all know we get what we pay for.
