To all those that use metal jerry cans or other metal gas cans… How do you store them after you’ve emptied the gas? I just used my can for the first time on a trip. Do I just dry it out and seal it? Or should I wash it out? I really don’t know. I’d love some guidance.
Everyone that I know only fill them at the last stop before going remote. Once your tank has space, you put it in the tank. This way your fuel gauge is how much gas you have left and this avoids any spills, leaks, or stale gas.
Then when you get home, we vent them and let whatever little evaporate, close up and store empty.
