Quick ? about fuel bottles. - 10-30-2006, 05:52 PM

Real quick,I see there are 3 different types of fuel bottles.

The plug type

Screw cap

And now this little deal(new to me)
http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXHVX0&P=7
Ofna has one too.

Which one is good? LOL. I have had screw type bottles for awhile now but over time,they never seem to want to screw on right. Friend had the plug bottle and the side split on him. And I know nothing about that new auto stop.
So what is the best bottle basicly???

I've owned a few duratrax bottles in the past. They don't last very long. They dry up and crack down the seam. Cheap quality plastic IMO.

This is the one I use right now. Holding up great IMO,

Which would explain why the duratrax is just $5 LOL

I do like the look of this one.

Duratrax doesn't make quality things, only thing that I have had any success with is the chargers.

As for the bottle, I use the dynamite 500cc one.

Haven't tried any bottles other than the traxxas one. Had that for about a year and a half. So far so good.

If you lost it at the track, ask John if it's in the lost and found.

I did use one a couple of weeks ago. It was sitting on top of the fridge and it looked like someones name was written in marker on the top. I didnt look to read it,but I did notice that most of it had worn away.
