Default Making Your Own 1 Gallon Fuel Can

There seems to be a bunch more newbies coming on board with the introduction of the JBA 15G and DLE 20 small gas engines - me included. I wanted a cheap 1 gallon gas can for use at the field and most of the ones I saw were 2 or more gallons and expensive. Well I made myself an inexpensive one and thought I would share.

It starts out with a cheap $7 1 gallon can from Lowes, a Briggs and Stratton gas cap from Lowes, some brass tubing, a gas rubber stopper, tygon fuel line, fuel filter, some super sticky double sided tape, some left over parts from some glow fuel tanks and your choice in a manual or electric fuel pump.

***NOTE*** The large brass tubing is 5/32 and not 3/32 as indicated in the attachments.
