So a friend just emptied his motorcycle gas tank and stored the gas in a protein powder bucket half an hour ago, with the purpose of having new gas in the tank.
I reckon, since the bucket is intended for storing food, the gas will dissolve the plastic?
Can he use this gas for his car or is it too late now?
ummmmmms
Even though it's probably okay, I wouldn't risk it personally. Should have used glass.

He's not the

type.
It's about 10-15 litres and the car's gas tank is roughly 50-60 litres.

That's a lot of protein powder Jesus
Really though it depends on the type of plastic that particular jug is made of. Check the code on the bottom and/or ask /sci/

The MC gas tank was almost full, and it's an R1 early 2000s. He also poured some of it in a 10-litre plastic bucket.
I'll check and ask.
Thank you!
Plastic is petroleum-based and should not dissolve in a petroleum-based liquid
And for some reason I posted too early.
What he SHOULD be worried about would be eventual color or paint on the inside dissolving and mixing with the gas
Just add some styrofoam to it to negate any effects the container would have had to the gas.

I see. Thank you, I'll tell him.

Ah shit, don't actually add styrofoam nigger. That's how you make napalm.
