Default Princess Auto fuel cans

Thought this was interesting.

They have a 20 and a 10 litre fuel can made by Sceptre and the filler neck.

The 20L bears all the milspec markings and has the red Petrol strap for the screw on lid.

They did have some hideous baby blue water ones as well.

Prices were 20L green $64.99 10L green $39.99 filler neck $39.99

Seen in the Kingston store

They have carried the scepter products for a while now, but space limitations in some of the stores limits the exposure these products get.

I know that about 10 years back we had to remove all the scepter cans from service that did not have the UN classification markings on the can. I didn't look at the ones at princess auto to see if they had the marking but I would imagine they must, or else some other approval rating that would be accepted at gas stations. Technically you cannot fill the older cans without the rating.

I saw those baby blue water cans today and was somewhat intrigued.

I also note they only carry the small nozzle type of filler neck (horsecock). Great for the sedan, but it means that you would be standing in the cold twice as long filling the tractor.
