Can anyone point me to where I might be able to purchase a 2 or 3 Litre spare fuel can. I am doing an event in a weeks time (Le Jog) and it might be prudent to carry a small supply of spare fuel. With everything else I am carrying in the boot, I do not have room for a traditional 5L can! With safety in mind I do not want just any 'old tin can' but am looking for a designed item. I did think of motorbike tourers if they carry small spare cans but have been unable to find anything. Thanks

How long has "LeJog" been going? I remember marshalling at an event with that name around 1993 or 1994. It went through the most remote areas of the West Coast of Scotland, in the middle of the night in horrendous weather with extremely old cars. My hat is removed in deference to you if that is the same LeJog. You and the car are made of stern stuff.

Thanks traction 39 - sadly they are out of stock as other suppliers seem to be. May have solved problem with a couple of 1L two stroke self mix cans from Homebase! Not sure how long Le Jog has been going but you are right in saying that it will be a test of both car & man - jsu 1 week to go.
