Also Mister Necks, store your cans inside cover them up too.   Condensation is the enemy here, metal cans sweat when the humidity goes up and down.    Best storage would be inside a controlled temperature and humidity environment.    I fella I know has a pontoon boat.    The boat has a spot for gas cans on the back of each sponson.   The entire outfit sets outside all the time.  Every spring I hear him holler’n about alcohol gas.  His tanks have water in them.   I wonder where some of that foot of snow and ice went that was built up on your tanks?  I ask him?  Most fuel tanks have a vent and water will get in eventually.  Pressure tanks can leach water through the pump button.  JMHO
