Stay Clean Fuel Jug

[Jerry Reider]

I found a way to keep dirt out of my fuel at the flying field.  I measured the diameter of my fuel line at .220".  So I drilled two .200 diameter holes in the cap of my gallon fuel jug.  I put a long piece that reaches to the bottom of the jug in one hole and a 1" long piece for a vent in the other hole.  I cut angles on the end of the tubing so it was easier to push through the smaller diameter holes in the cap.  I also used different colors of fuel line so I know which is the vent.  I accidently found that since the cap is one of those stupid child proof caps that I can turn it 1/8 of a turn and it seals both tubes shut for storage.  It took about 5 minutes to do.

there are numerous "off the shelf" variations to this - but I guess you can claim builder points on this one
