08668 Rectangular 12 Gallon Marine Fuel Tank For Outboard Engine Boats, 23" x 14" x 14", Red

I purchased this to use as an extra fuel tank for when I travel across the country next month. I have it in the bed of my truck along with a shaker siphon hose just in case I need extra gas between gas stations, my truck is pulling a cargo trailer with tools and household items so it will be heavy and I will burn a lot of fuel on a 5000km trip. One thing that is important, one reviewer talked about the red plastic plug leaking and he gave this tank a 2 star rating based on that, of course, that little red plastic plug is going to leak, it's not meant to stay in the fuel tank, it is only there to keep dirt out of the tank before you install a fuel line connector that has threads, the plastic plug has no threads because it is just a temporary plug so it will leak. If you want to use this as a gas can to store extra fuel like I am doing, you need to buy a proper threaded plug to replace the red plastic plug, this is what I purchased but there are a lot of different options for plugs that you can buy... https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B006PKKSQK?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

So I’ve used these before but now they added something that is costing them money and us grief. They added a small plastic vent plug. It draws in air but when it’s hot it collapses keeping gas fumes in. I returned one tank because of this and the replacement did the same thing so I pull the plug out… I guess I could have trimmed it but works fine now

I made good use of this Scepter 12 Gallon Portable Marine Gas Can for my modified Champion Inverter to add a significant amount of run time and convenience. I use this inverter for whole-house power backup during weather related outages and this tank is just what I needed! It is strong and heavy (in a good way) & very solid! The builtin fuel gage works very well to get an idea of how close you're getting to the bottom. Fortunately for me, with 12 gallons this is far less frequently than when I had to rely on the 4 gallon tank that comes with the inverter. The fuel cap and breather feature seems to work well too. That is a very good feature, by the way. It keep the can from swelling in hot weather. People; you really want a GOOD QUALITY fuel container. After all, it's gasoline! This is not an area where you want cheap-out and buy a crappy fuel container. In my opinion this is the one to buy, but I'm a pilot and always think of safety first. I recommend this 12 gallon tank. Its heavy duty, well constructed & has good safety features.

Fair price ,exact replacement part for the one I have that leaks(from age )

This is a very durable tank. It is a tall tank, therefore, it is not a long tank. This allows it to fit into tighter spaces.I it hold 12 gallons of fuel. I use it for a diesel heater configuration. The cap is is easy to open and close. It clicks to let you know when it has reached the closed position. It has a 1/4 not fitting from the fuel pickup. Allowing you to use whatever fitting you need. There is a vent in the cap to allow for airflow, so you not create a vacuum in the tank. This has been a very good addition to my configuration, allowing me to run for 2 weeks at a time without refills.
