NOT in the standard plastic 5 gallon gas containers. We’ve had 3 of them split at the seam and leak over the last 6 years.

Same happened to me. They don’t handle temperature cycling very well.

Spend the money ($20 - $35) on some racing fuel containers. They hold 5, 7.5 or 10 gallons, sit upright, and are made for being hauled around in trailers and the like. They are far more durable than the crap sold in normal stores. Plus they don't have crappy anti-spill stuff on them that makes it harder to pour and easier to spill.

I have avoided that by sealing them after treating with an overdose of Pri-G and then using a hair-fine drill bit...I'm talking 1/4 of a millimeter (I got mine from a jeweler who does repairs) make a small hole at the top of the handle portion. This will allow pressure equalization.

I have been able to store gasoline for up to 3 years and it runs fine in my cars. Use Summer gas only. less additives. Marine gas if you can get it...no alcohol.
