[QUOTE="DPittman, post: 28941, member: 38"] So I just did a sort of similar thing sort of....I wanted to reuse some aluminum containers for chainsaw gas but the plastic caps that came with them are not gas resistant. The caps have an odd ball thread that I can't reproduce on my lathe. (White cap in photo). My solution was to cut off the lip on the can so I could slide an abs fitting over top. The abs fitting had to be bored out on lathe to the right diameter and then jb welded onto the can. Im happy with the results. [/QUOTE]
