Fuel Weights?

[Jeff Hughes]

Comparing fuel weight in a jug from different vendors is a losing 
proposition. container weight, container size (is it really a gallon 
to the top?) Temperature (plastic expands with heat) how full is the 
top?, etc all will cause gross variations. If you want to know, your 
gonna have to pour each it into a weighed calibrated container. or 
better yet, check density and back calculate for a gallon.
