    Ever tried to use one of http://www.scepterconsumer.com/auto/fuel/ cans? Even worse than the Blitz ones (and that's hard).

    I have one of these which are apparently vintage now even though its only a few years old http://www.ebay.com/itm/TWO-VINTAGE-...-/190808893018
    and one just like this http://www.blitzusa.com/products/fue...ment/ef5g.html

    never had a problem with either but the second one sucks just cause its a little bit of a pain but I don't spill it everywhere.

    Used a gas can for the first time in a few years a couple weeks ago. My coworker took my bike out for a cruise at lunch time and ran out of gas. What a pain in the ass those new cans are.

    Well I got this from Amazon today and it fits my midwest can , I am sure sceptros and maybe others
    I want to carry a Gall on my TW becaus it only holds 1 1/3 Gals which goes quickly in the dirt

    Yes they are. We can slam 20 gallons of gas into the Mustang and swap drivers in about 3 minutes using them.

    Empty VP fuel cans from the track are worth saving.
