I wish I had back the normal gas cans I threw away because the movers wouldn't allow them. Whoever could have guessed that the Watermelon Environmentalists would find a problem with a friggin gas can?

Great cans, I have a 6-pack of them.
But 4 of them are newer, we had a passenger van with a full tank at the shop that needed a fuel pump.
So, the customer bought 4 5-gallon cans, then gave them to me when we were done.
I just switch the 2 good flowing nozzles from the old ones to the ones I'm using.
They will be nice for the Woodward Dream cruise this year.
My niece lives about a mile off the main drag, so I will store 30 gallons of racing fuel in her garage.
We can go there to top off the cars, we will be mixing it with premium to stretch it.

I also have a 2.5 and a 1 gallon like that, which I used for mixed gas for my weed eater... Oh, and I have an even older school one that belonged to my Grandpa. Might be a great candidate for that piece you posted, Brew. I think that's a 2 gallon.

You probably missed yesterday's post.
I tightened the oil filter with the wrench yesterday.
I didn't max it out to extremes but it was wayyy over "hand tight". It's like a bad feeling, even for a newbie, when you tighten something and it's not firming up. Something makes you think, it ain't right.
It would have caused problems down the road if left as is.
So I used "hand tight" and a very very small amount of wrench tightening on new filter today.
