If you bought a Blitz plastic gas can from Walmart, be careful...there is the possibility of them exploding

Well don't throw a match in them. Better start suing gas stations for not having anti static materials on premises
OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This shit Almost happened to me!!! I left a gas can about half full in my garage. I came out one day and the fucking thing was SO popped out I thought it was going to burst at the seems, I hit the pressure release and WHAM it almost sucked itself inside out.

Fuck those things!!!
Won't be long before you will not be able to buy a gas can. Oh well, another product gone due to law suits.
Remember the metal gas cans? I liked those.
I think you can still get those, but if I had a choice, id prob just get the race refillers..
What's wrong with empty plastic water bottles?...
Never had a problem with them. Sometimes you have to be smarter than the average gas can. When they swell in the heat, I would leave the vent openJerk
there are no outer vents, its a smart vent system they have that is incorporated into the pouring nozzle. I am guessing whatever valve is on the inside that is supposed to release the fumes but never does. I ended up just leaving the top part a lil unscrewed...
