Special · Petrol
A petrol canister that lets the protagonists pour a flammable trail and ignite it — a fire-starting tool used in several story missions including The Big Score's pre-finale setups. Always available from carjack-able service vehicles.
The Jerry Can is an item and a weapon in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.
The Jerry Can is depicted as a red 2.5 gallon petrol can apparently based on the German canister (Wehrmachtskanister), as suggested by the design, name and specifications. It features various markings that read Kraftstoff 20L - Feuergefährlich (lit. Flammable fuel 20L), with a number 1939 on it (apparently its manufacture year) and "Flammable" warning stickers on it. It also has traditional cross-shaped indentations covering most of the canister' sides.
The Jerry Can is listed in the "Thrown" slot in the Weapon Wheel, although it is classed as a weapon of its own in the files ("Petrol Can", in this case), separated from the thrown weapons (similar to how Submachine Guns and Light Machine Guns are classed separately from a single slot).
In the enhanced version, the Jerry Can received a visual upgrade, where the indentations cover a smaller portion on the sides, it has an extra sticker (a yellow square with a black "X" on it), and the markings were changed to a white lettering, together with a serial number at the bottom. The manufacture year, however, is missing.
