Yes I'll admit I skimmed it a bit at first and read it that I could store 30L in the garage and 30L in the van but on closer inspection it's 30L in total :oops: To be honest I prefer to keep fuel in metal containers if it's stored for any length of time especially if it's petrol. I also prefer conta...

As I read it it's also ok to store 30L on the vehicle in cans in addition to the vehicle's own tank which appears to me to be a loophole which allows effectively 60Ls of storage ? Just reread and I think I'm wrong there. It says up to 30L in a maximum of two containers ( are there 15L jerry cans?) ...

I realise we're veering towards petrol rather than diesel but I think we are all agreed there's no limit to storing diesel and it's pretty much safe to use . Interesting reading the government website though concerning petrol storage . We all seem agreed that 30L can be stored without involving the ...

I can see how that would work although it doesn't look to be any cheaper than the Aspen. A thought did occur to me however. I could probably trawl through the net to find the answer but perhaps you'll know Andy. As I understand the maximum amount of petrol that can be stored legally is 30 L. As that...

I tend to think a lot of it depends upon the container. For long term I keep liquid fuel in metal cans topped up as much as possible to reduce the air gap and stored in a pretty stable environment. I distrust plastic containers a bit more for long term storage especially for petrol. As far as I unde...

Conclusion as far as I can see it is that there's no one siagain could just end up as an imobile lump of metal and be of no use whatso ever fits all answer , eggs in one basket or whatever analogy one wishes to use. Stored food is good for some situations less so for others , financial preps and pre...

Probably five years ago I posted on here about using old diesel. I did a quick search but couldn't find it so gave up :oops: but basically I'd had someone run into my van , 09 plate transit , so it was off the road. The insurance provided a hire van and I thought an ideal opportunity to try out some...

Ah I see. Working on the "I've got enough tools" comment said by no bloke ever I'd then be tempted to build a couple of toolkits. One that just lives with the scooter and has spanners sized just for that and another for travel containing the grips and adjustable spanner. And perhaps a scre...

I worked in restoration for quite some time and it was not uncommon to have to bolt plates onto timbers. Most of us carried adjustable spanners and I still have an 8" and 15" in my toolbox but for any number of bolting jobs the ridged spanners came out and they became part of the kit in a ...
