Petrol Container

[Neeranam]

Where can I get one of those metal petrol containers that are handy to keep in the boot of the car, in case you run out of petrol in the middle of nowhere.

Could I put some in a empty, plastic coke bottle?

What is safe to keep petrol in?

I'm in europe just now and nearly bought one but didn't because of the bulk and weight. Are there any serious reasons why these containers should be metal, not plastic?

Probably, the metal ones less likely to crack. I use the plastic one to transport petrol home for my lawn mower. Got a neat pouring spout which stores inside the tank lid when not in use. Wouldn't want to keep it in the truck all the time though. Gets too hot and the petrol fumes expand. Used the steel ones a lot in Saudi when going far into the desert. Have to be well secured or they'll crack too if bounced around too much. Here in Thailand, I wouldn't have thought it possible to run out of petrol, every small village seems to have a hand cranked pump.

The 100 Pipers container seems to be the most popular in Thailand, altho have to say that the Sang Song container runs a close second.

Each holds the same amount of petrol and the easy pour thin neck is a plus.

Cost of the 100 Piper container is slightly higher.

Beat me to it

The universal fuel container.

Isn't the SangSom bottle used for diesel??

Great idea! What can I do with the whisky though?
