Default Power Master Fuel: How to get the fuel out of the can??

How are you guys getting the fuel out of the powermaster cans? I just switched. Are you drilling holes in the top and installing the fuel fittings? Or is there a better way?

Thanks.

Here ya go....

Dave Brown "Six Shooter" pump strapped to the can.

Cap drilled to accept fuel fittings.

Replace the can...save the lid when you get a fresh gallon.

Hope my pic posts.

CRAP...my file is too big. Just buy a DB 6 shooter and it's cake to install.

Thanks guys. It was a dumb question but I was curious if fellas are dumping the fuel into other containers.

Thanks again.

Rich ,
Slimline makes a dandy unit for the cans and it includes the
cap and a pump that attaches to the handle strap and makesw a neat unit. Du-Bro 807 is also useful, just drill 1/2 inch hole in the cap, install the fittings,connect your fuel tubing and pump and away you go.

Hi Wendell:

Thanks for the response. I found a nifty pump at my LHS yesterday. Its was a new old stock item. Dubro #191. It clamps to the can and works great. The LHS is looking for the adapter so I can use my starter to spin the pump. But since I'm only filling 8 or 10 oz tanks hand cranking takes about 15 seconds.

Now if I can talk my LHS in to carrying power master fuel.

Default where do you get Powermaster on-line?

What is the best way to order Powermaster fuel? internet site?

How much does it cost to get it shipped to my home?

Thanks,

Default RE: Power Master Fuel: How to get the fuel out of the can??

WIll the Slimline-Pro Cap 360 work with the Powermaster fuel CANS?



Can anyone confirm that the "F1 PRO CAP CAN" will work??




I'm using the Dubro Red "drill a hole in the cap" filler, and I just bought a new one 'cause the old one broke, and the new one has a split in the moulding seam.
So, I'm pumping 'FUEL FOAM' arrggggg!!!

It's like a Straw with a hole in it!!! Don't ya just hate that!

Now my lips are BURNING! just trying to determine what the dang problem was.

30% nitro tastes like crap! Flies good, But tastes just plum awful....


WARNING!! This Thing Is JUNK!! WARNING!!
WARNING!! This Thing Is JUNK!! WARNING!!

WARNING!! This Thing Is JUNK!! WARNING!!
WARNING!! This Thing Is JUNK!! WARNING!!

Does anyone make a NICE cap for cans. ????







I use the Powermaster "METAL FUEL CAN"

Not Plastic Fuel Jug...

Powermaster now only comes in cans!

Ohhh, How I wish it still came in jugs!

Less Fuel comes in the cans anyway!!!!

Help!?[&o]

Yep he is indeed correct. If one had actually put a can of PowerMaster fuel in a plastic fuel jug, you would see that you could have fueled up your Raptor 90 one time with what is missing. I have been doing the can to jug swap out for more than a year now, and I can tell you I have YET to have one can fill my old PowerMaster jug to the top. Actually it usually never even starts to fill the tapered neck before the can is empty. And that is FACT!
