Questions & Answers

Is this item permitted to be carried on a plane?

I flew from Vancouver to Tel Aviv with a stop at Heathrow and carried an emptied and well vented bottle (along with my new MSR Dragonfly) in checked luggage without incident. It is illegal to transport fuel.

Where does the bottle come from?

China is where they're made. It's a top-notch product. bottle of high quality Mine have never leaked or seeped fuel in over 35 years of use (and I've had a lot of them in all three sizes). I've used them to power a stove while backpacking and as spare gas canisters while riding a motorcycle. Mine have had a lot of wear and tear. up, but not to the point of being abused Sigg and Optimus are two other brands I've used that provide excellent performance, but MSR is my favorite.

Aside from the cap, what distinguishes these bottles from older MSR bottles?

As far as I can tell, there isn't anything. The difference appears to be the cap. Perhaps some of the older ones had a proclivity to open slightly and leak. The new cap design makes it more difficult for anyone to accidentally open it.

Selected User Reviews For MSR Liquid Fuel Bottle

I bought this to keep spare unleaded gasoline on my motorcycle, but it's not exactly safe for gasoline
4/5

Nothing in the manufacturer's information indicates that you CAN use it for gasoline, but it also does not state that you CANNOT. So I bought the bottle based on reviews from people who said they had no problems using it for gasoline. br>br>What I found out is that it can carry unleaded gasoline without leaking or emitting fumes. However, I discovered the red and black paint is NOT gasoline safe after a minor (and nearly inevitable) amount of overflow while filling it. The paint became sticky, the black paint came off on my hands, and the paper towel I used to wipe it down is now fused to the bottle, much like Jeff Goldblum and the fly in that movie whose title I can't recall. br>br>I'm giving it a four-star rating because it does what I want it to do (gasoline), but given the generic use of the term "fuel," a disclaimer about the paint not being gasoline safe would have been helpful.

Dirt bikers will love it
5/5

This container holds 30 ounces of gasoline for my dirt bike, which isn't a lot of gas (about. It's not a lot of water (25 gallons), but it'll get you out of a jam. I keep the bottle in a spare fuel carrier made by Wolfman. ***Just a heads up- If you get gasoline on the red paint, it will peel off***.

If properly cared for, they can last a lifetime
5/5

These items are fantastic and nearly indestructible when properly maintained and used. My original has lasted me 25 years and is still going strong. I needed an extra for a longer hiking/camping trip where I would need more fuel than one bottle could hold. If you order this, make sure to have extra o rings made for it. I also keep an extra lid on hand just in case, but I've never needed it. Replace the o ring if it begins to leak or if you notice it has become dry rotted, cracked, or damaged in any other way. In order to make the o- There is a trick that works on almost anything with a rubber o ring that doesn't interfere with the operation, and it works not only on these but on almost anything with a rubber o ring that doesn't interfere with the operation. The trick is to apply silicone oil to the ring before installing it on each side, then rub a little on it as needed. I only do this once or twice a year. It helps it seal better and prevents it from drying out so quickly. They make silicone for this purpose as well as grease silicon for this purpose as well as grease silicon for this purpose as well as grease silicon for this purpose as% It's similar to the pump cup oil that msr suggests applying to the rubber cup inside the pump. On your bottle o-, it has the same effect. ring. If you follow this advice and take care of the bottle, it will last a lifetime, minus the oring. I brought this up because I discovered that when a bottle begins to leak, many people discard it and replace it with a new one. I'm sure many of you who are reading this already know, but hopefully it will save someone from throwing away a perfectly good fuel bottle because it was missing a small, cheap rubber ring. Happy hiking and have a wonderful day!.

Smashing! This was purchased to keep a small amount of spare fuel on hand for my Stratoliner
5/5

I refilled the bottle to the recommended fill line and set it in the sun on the asphalt to see if it would leak after a short period of time. Well, I forgot about it until I heard a noise: the bottle, still on the asphalt, had not leaked a drop, even after my tech ran it over with a Cadillac!.

ENDURO MOTORCYCLE RIDERS, THIS IS A LIFESAVER! I ran out of gas as I approached the final ten miles of a 90-mile enduro race loop
5/5

I had a comfortable lead and was on my way to a podium finish. If only I could make it to the end of the race! I took out my MSR fuel bottle and poured it into my tank, then kicked my KTM 300 and BOOM! It was time for me to take off once more! This little fue bottle not only helped me cross the finish line, but it also saved me HOURS of waiting in the desert for the sweep crew to rescue me! (I finished 7th overall, missing a couple of check points and one special test, but hey, that's racing!).

Fuel bottle from MSR
5/5

On my motorcycle, I used these bottles to carry extra gas. Because I travel on back roads for long periods of time, gasoline is not always readily available. To provide me with insurance, I kept three of these bottles in my saddlebag. I've driven thousands of miles without experiencing any leaks. However, because the neck of the bottles is small in comparison to the standard gas station hose, filling these bottles at a gas station is difficult. To fill the bottles, I use a funnel.

Small but perfectly formed tank! Let me start by saying that I bought two of these, as well as an MSR Dragonfly stove
5/5

They arrived in perfect condition. When you first fill the tank, it may be difficult to remove the top or cap (for good reason, they have "child proof" caps). Even when resting on the side while cooking with the Dragonfly stove, I've had no leaks once it's been filled. br>br>These tanks are extremely light when empty. Even when fully loaded, they weigh less than a one-liter soda bottle. When you consider that these are metal instead of plastic, it's pretty amazing. br>br>As for mileage, I'm not sure. I don't have enough experience with them to give them a rating. In terms of the bottle's construction, I believe it will last a long time if it is not misused or abused. They appear to be cast as a single piece rather than having a welded bottom, which should make them more durable. The best part is that they'll fit in a regular bicycle water bottle cage. I'm looking forward to mounting these on my fork bottle cages and taking them on a bike tour. If you do decide to purchase these bottles, go for the 30 bottle capacity. They take up less space on your MSR stove than the smaller ones.
