    Go buy a box of 1/4" nuts. Then do the hokey-pokey. Put in a 100, shake 'em all about.
    Just make sure you get 100 back out.

    Poor in Coca Cola... shake and let sit over night. The phosphate in Coke will clean it out. Make sure to rinse it well, and to keep the lid sealed while you let it sit over night, if its not sealed you will get sugar residue and you know what that means, more HP!

    You're making it more difficult than it needs to be. Ignore the voices saying "gotta have it now" and buy them one at a time slowly as you find nice ones at good prices. I had a jerry can shipped and it wasn't too bad considering what I paid for a NOS late model can.

    I guess they were saying patience is a virtue?

    Its gonna be around 210-230lbs... from what ive calculated.

    When you run down to Cabo, up to Alaska, through Wyoming... its good to have. Im going to be installing a long range fuel cell later on too. Can you say 800 miles without fueling up?

    anyhoo..... when dirt roads are a couple hundred miles.. you need it.

    Mileage may vary when your going offroad in low rage. I like the idea of having 7 full gas cans.
