I dont use jerry cans bud cos they leak, smell and rust that contaminate your fuel.

I do happen to have 2x 25ltr VP race fuel jugs, i use them for my ski. They are a thick fuel resistant plastic with sealed pouring spout tubes and beather vents.

These are much much better than jerry cans and youre welcome to borrow them if you like.

See what i can do mate shouldnt be a problem, roughly how long will you need em for as my ski season starts at the begining of March.

They dont leak but still better stand them upright if theyre going in the back of the scoob.

Well it was £4.99, buy it now was £9.99 from ESSEX
you could have won it for £4.99, & picked it up.
thought then you would always have ONE of your own.

I can just picture the Lodge car park.

Dead of night.

Torches shining in the boots of cars.

Furtive whispering.

Large containers being swapped from one vehicle to another.

It will look like a gathering of "Moonshiners Anonymous".
