i have done it!

i have done some R&D and come with the difinative answer in the long and anoying problem with the power service bottle.
you all know how the bottle always tends to leak?
well i have spent the last couple weeks doing some research and i believe i have got an answer, use a 16oz. pepsi bottle or the like. iput power service in a few different containers and that was the only one that never leaked. first i put them right side up in a bucket for a week then up side down for a weak and no leaks from the pepsi bottle!!!

I transfer my PS into empty 16 and 32oz Marvel Mystery Oil bottles. The long necks make it easy to pour into the tank without spilling it all over the side of the bed.

I had a lucas Inj clnr bottle that worked great, but I think I threw it out by accident. It had the measurements on the side of the bottle.

I second that durasmack. I keep it in the tool box. Who wants that stuff in the cab. I do use a pop bottle to pour the stuff in though. Easier to measure with and no mess on the side of the bed.

I just let my lucas leak all over my floor board. Gives the carpet a nice sheen to it.
