[QUOTE="KMixson, post: 113588, member: 432"] It could have ignited due to static electricity between the mower and the plastic gas can. I work around jet fuel, gasoline and diesel and we ground everything together before transferring fuel from one place to another. We do not use plastic gas cans. It is also a good idea to release any static between you and you vehicle before filling by touching a metal part of your vehicle. Wool type sweaters are very bad at creating static that can cause a spark when filling your tank. When you slide out of your seat in your car it may create static electricity. Be careful. [/QUOTE]
