Doing a little cleaning out garage. Took all fuel cans outside. Looked atbottoms of old metal kerosene dans, decided to put some rust converter on.I was filling up various polyethylene cans, with oil and or fuelstabilizers, cleaners. Added cap ffull of alcohol to kerosene.Putting cans back in garage. Then I noticed full can of kerosene leaking onbottom.Wiped up mess, then started transferring into almost empty kerosene tank.To day I start filling polyethylene blue container with kerosene. I just got this container about two years ago. O ring fall out, broken, twoother parts, and darn if I can get anything out of the spout. My intentionsare to buy two water containers for my kerosene. I can't deal with thesenew no spill cans, i can't even get anything out. I use a pump to getkerosene anyway.The other thing, I'm going to keep all fuels out of garage.Greg

"Squeeze"? It's not a ketchup bottle. ;-) My 1-gal has a flow control valve; quite nice to fill my weed-whacker. My 2-1/2 gal doesn't but it does have a "overflow" tube, which I find quite convenient.
