[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 67785, member: 337"] If you are like me and you don't like the dumb plastic cans and their leaking, crappy pour spouts, and bouncing around in your sleds then buy a "tractor manual" storage tube and a camping fuel can. I suspect my stuff will never again suffer "gas stank" on a bouncy Winnipeg trip. The camping gas canister ($18) holds 1/4 gallon - plenty for my purposes (also serves as backup gas with for snowmobile since I use a 4 stroke auger). The tractor manual storage tubes are $5. I can post Amazon links to both if you'd like. It's like they were made for each other. Maybe 1/4 inch room to spare. I mounted one to my sled hitch and another one to the snowmobile for flexibility (sometimes I leave my shelter/sled behind and scout from just the snowmobile which carries the auger). [ATTACH=CONFIG]3373._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]3374._xfImport[/ATTACH] This tip is probably useless since everyone's buying electric nowadays but figured it might be useful for a few old gas holdouts. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I put a bungee cord through the cap to make Enslow happy. [/QUOTE]
