Hello guys! My first ever thread started. :D Hope I'm in the right section and everything! ANYWAYS, I purchased some Nitro fuel online and had it shipped, when I opened the box that it was shipped in the inside of the box was coated with fuel and the outside of the container felt greasy. :( The cap was tight so I'm assuming it's a leak near the top of the gallon jug. My REAL question is. What can I transfer this fuel into, like what kind of container. For ex. A Petrol aka gasoline container like you find in the mower/auto parts section at Wally-world(Wal-Mart). What should I do? Any answers are welcomed GREATLY, Thanks for your time guys!
 
Something that will seal tightly like the container it was shipped in would be a good start. You dont want air to get to the fuel, or it will start to go bad a gum up on you.
 
yeah that's what I was gonna do but we have the S**** snap on milk gallon lids. Would it still be fine?
 
Oh for hell sakes, you drive an STi dawg, $$ shouldnt be a problem to buy more nitro! Haha kidding, what racer said is spot on really.

Totally OT- What year is your subie? I used to drive an 05 WRX, tuned real nice, badass fastness.
