Hey Michael,

Just to get back on topic (I know, what a spoil sport).

Small & Sons distributing in Auburn would be another source close to you. They have a retail station on Auburn Way with a dispenser for fill ups, or you can buy it in containers from their bulk plant.

One thing most people don't discuss about storing gasoline in drums or buckets is the safety issue. Be particularly mindful where you keep it. As an example, in the garage, where you have a water heater and/or furnace would not be a good idea. Enclosed space, gasoline vapors, "open" flame = bad combination. I know, the car is parked there with a tank full of gasoline all the time, it's not the same...........particularly if you have 55 gallons of the stuff there. Especially when you go to transfer it (pump, pail, whatever). Just something to think about.
