I just picked up a Sceptre that had diesel in it. Is there a problem putting gas in it? Will diesel have leached into the plastic and be enough to cause problems?

nope, you're fine to use it for gas. the first time you use fuel from it, you may get a bit of smoke from the residual diesel left in the container

Make sure to change out the rubber gaskets for for the Viton gaskets. The rubber doesn't hold up well to gasoline.

This. If you do not change the diesel gasket over to gasoline (Viton) then the rubber will swell and break the ring on the interior of the cap. And it will leak. Same applies to the spouts.Originally Posted by SP Jon M3
