Motorcycle shops sell "race gas" for the dirt bikers. A guy I know who has a landscaping business runs VP racing fuel in all of his small engines.


I have 4 of those for the boat.   I built a valve so that I can lift them into place without relying on gravity feed.

No...I'm still trying to figure out whether his boat has four motorcycle shops, dirt bikers, landscaping businesses or small engines.

It's a big boat.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

4 of the VP cans and the valve is made from fuel grade components. 
Gives me a way to gravity feed without spillage.
