Fuel tank capacity limit

I'm a fan of the No-Spill cans. I've been using the same No-Spill can for fueling my gas engines for the last 14 years without a single issue with it. I just bought a 5 gal diesel version of it from Menards as they just started carrying the diesel version and have a great sale price on it right now, $15.

No-Spill® 5-Gallon Diesel Fuel Can

The No-Spill® 5-gallon poly diesel fuel can is the easiest fuel can to use on the market! It features a unique thumb-controlled fuel spout for easy, controlled pouring. The spout design allows for more precise product fueling, reducing spills and overflows, particularly for medium-sized...

What's nice about the No-Spill is that I can set the container on the hood, rest the nozzle on the filler opening, hold the dispensing button down, and it'll automatically stop when the level reaches the nozzle.

I second this recommendation.

When I'm not using the tractor, it hangs out in the garage with the classic car lol.

We all know that the tractor looks just like any other tractor of that model, but your classic car sounds more interesting. No picture of it, and it doesn't exist.

My tractor came with scratches in the hood and I didn't notice. The price was too good to complain.

I have one of the No-Spill cans. It's the 1-gallon for 2-cycle gas for chainsaws, trimmers.

Really like it.

Gotten so I typically use my battery-operated fuel transfer pump for much of my larger stuff like generator, Minneapolis Moline and Kubota.

It has a longer hose and trigger-operated valve on the hose which makes life a lot simpler refueling some stuff.

There might be a film over it, it really looks that way to me, but I am a long way away!

Oh and we weren't picking on or making fun of you for the clean tractor, we were picking on @nerwin.
But hey you can wear it as a badge of honor too!
Having a clean tractor that you care for is not a bad thing!

Inside information:
If I has a new nice looking tractor, I would be doing the same thing as you and Nerwin!

Still haven`t been to the tractor place since I wrote, so haven`t had a chance to check. We`ll see how long I will carry the badge, ha

No hard feelings
I get it - it sure doesn`t make sense to keep the tractor away from working to keep it looking new. That beeing said - my new problem is lack of mats- I am not very thrilled about vanishing paint.
. Kinda funny how they don`t put mats on L series as if it saves them who knows how much. In production mats probably costs them $10. And they consider it premium feature.

Trust me, as I said I certainly respect one's desire to keep a new tractor in "new" condition.

My post came across more critical than intended.

My little BX is now 11+ years old with over 500 hours. Last couple/few years I haven't put many hours on it due lack of rain (mowing) and snow to run the snowblower. Mowing and snow removal are its primary tasks, but I do quite a bit of dirt work in my yard and stone work on my driveway when needed. Probably have done 150 tons of stone in the driveway alone.

I've done work with the tractor that has saved me 1,000's of dollars I would have otherwise paid a contractor.

Like you said, we both bought them for work.

But for a couple scratches on the tractor and implements, I try to keep it in good running and looking condition.....I paid too much for it and the implements to do otherwise!
