they will work, but you need to remember to leave expansion room, and the O ring needs to changed, the fuel bottles I posted are reinforced to pressurize for camp stoves, and already have the proper O ring, as cheap as they are, just get one designed for fuel, they don't need to vent, all modern gas cans are 100 percent sealed, but vapor needs a place to expand, when it cools it will condense again
