Scribner fuel jugs

[37]

Scribner Plastics fuel jugs utility jugs for $22 each and $5.95 flat-rate FedEx ground. The site doesn't list them as Scribner but they're the real deal. Mine just arrived today.

The cheap shipping is where the deal really happens. It looks like it stays at $5.95 as long as your cart doesn't exceed about $160. I ordered three jugs and a spare cap for less than $80 shipped.

Filler hose: http://www.soloperformance.com/18-inch-Filler-Hose-for-Utility-Jug_p_2222.html


My last set of Scribner jugs are over 20 years old. I've never replaced a gasket or vent cap. They last and don't leak. Hopefully my new ones go as long.

Thanks for the post! Any coupon codes?

LOL... I couldn't find any codes. Frankly, I'm surprised they're making a profit at this price. I'm also surprised shipping was so cheap. The box was huge!

They're $19.97 each here (http://pitstopusa.com/search.html?q=scribner+plastics+utility+jug) but shipping is higher. Spare caps are slightly more expensive as well. SPS was the lowest overall I could find on Google.

Will they fit in a Fly Racing rack?

Not sure. I have a trailer rack that fits them perfectly but it's not made by Fly.

Here are the dimensions so you can measure your rack:

Just checked Flys site and yes they fit. Good deal on new jugs!

Do these come with the filler hose or do I need to add that to my cart separate?

Jugs include caps with plugged tops (like shown in the drawing). You'll need to buy a hose assembly if you don't have one already. I always buy a spare cap to install the hose so I can cap each jug flush during transport.

Do you just buy the bits to make the hose?
I was in my local harware store and these jugs were $50 each plus the 25$ for the filler hose just like shown on this site.

The cap uses a 3/4 NPT thread. If you can find a 3/4-NPT to 3/4" barbed fitting plus around 18" of 3/4" fuel-resistant hose or tubing then you can make your own filler tube. Each needs to be a plastic that works with gasoline and possibly 10% ethanol if you're in an area without any non-ethanol fuel choices.

Had to order some since they offered pink. Thanks for the heads up on the deal.

Got mine.
It normal for it to say "not to be sold as fuel container" ?

Other wise I'm happy
Thanks for the heads up

These exact jugs were for sale for $40 a piece at our local racetrack last weekend.
