Derv isn't volatile though...Does it make any difference - if the liquid is volatile then they are all prone to the same risks??

It is if you squeeeeeeeze it very hardDerv isn't volatile though...
Are there no petrol stations in Lancashire then?I will get myself a 20l can. I have not done any long journeys in the truck yet, but it ain't no long range tank! The extra 20l will give better options on a long trip.
Thanks for your help.

How are the border patrols getting on between Yorkshire and Lancashire.They dunt take Yorkshire Shekels ...
That is unbelievable.
As you can see we have 2 on the S1. Just have to make sure they are empty when going into a ferry.
We were asked if we thought that was a dangerous mounting position,my reply was you are sat on the fuel tank

It should keep pretty well in a well-sealed can that's not subject to big changes in temperature, but I'd certainly be inclined to change it once a year. I think the formulation at the pumps changes Summer and Winter anyway, so you might find you're topping up with "Summer" diesel in the middle of Winter if you're unlucky.I have a 10 ltr steel jerry can in the back of my 90, never used it in 2 years, but good for peace of mind.
Is there a shelf life for diesel ?, I'm tempted to just pour it into the tank and refill.
My 90 has a 10 gallon tank. 28 mpg gives a theoretical range of 280 miles. When green laning, I can burn a gallon every half hour. If the lanes are 80 miles away (typically they are) I usually run low on fuel by midday! I only carry spare when I know it's marginalIt should keep pretty well in a well-sealed can that's not subject to big changes in temperature, but I'd certainly be inclined to change it once a year.

Never really been able to understand why people want to carry some much spare fuel around. If I lived in the Scottish Highlands, maybe, but even in rural Cumbria I've never needed it!

Off road racing used to be expansive...Only time i carry cans is when i need 40L for a track day
What did you race?Off road racing used to be expansive...
Some times I got as low as 1mpg. But many smiles to the miles.
10 gallons???!!! Really?! That's an incredibly small tank for something that thirsty! That's small even by "family car" standards. I thought they were nearer 12 gallons? I take your point about using loads of fuel whilst laning, but surely you can top up before the lanes?My 90 has a 10 gallon tank. 28 mpg gives a theoretical range of 280 miles.
