Pros and cons of fuel storage
#2
When I was racing we used to keep a 44 gal (200L) drum full of high octane in the shed.
I'm sure the guys here that hit the drags often would also have fuel stored.

It's quite ok as long as you are sensible & don't go spraying sparks from the grinder all over the drum.
Having said that, I would not store in plastic containers. Only steel.

You need to be careful with plastic lids. If if you tighten them too much the centre will crack & pop out. Especially the ones you have Volvi. If I'm not mistaken there is a plastic filter inside which is removable. Sometimes these can put the pressure on the weakest part of the lid & push the middle out.
