Fuel Canisters are objects in ''Donkey Kong Country''. They appear only in [[Tanked Up Trouble]]. Fuel Canisters refill a number of gauges on a [[platform]] used by [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]], that number matching the number of red dots on the Fuel Drum. Collecting nearly every Fuel Canister is required because the platform runs out of energy quickly. Fuel Canisters can depict either one, three, or five red dots. There are Fuel Canisters with two dots and four dots existing in the game's graphic data,<ref>{{cite|author=Mattress87, Mr. L, Tonberry2k|url=www.spriters-resource.com/snes/dkc/sheet/45630|title=Donkey Kong Country - Objects & Effects|publisher=The Spriters Resource|accessdate=May 16, 2022}}</ref> but they go [[list of Donkey Kong Country pre-release and unused content|unused]].
In ''Donkey Kong Country'', Fuel Barrels only appear in [[Tanked Up Trouble]]. They have a critical role of fueling a platform that [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] use throughout the level. The [[Kong]]s must quickly jump at every Fuel Barrel they encounter, as the platform's energy drains quickly.
 
The amount of fuel in the platform is measured in five gauges. Each Fuel Barrel has some red dots indicating how many of the gauges they can refill and, in turn, their usefulness to the Kongs. From a scale from lowest to highest, one red dot fills one gauge while five red dots refill all five gauges.

Fuel Drums are objects in ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''. They appear only in [[Rocket Rush (level)|Rocket Rush]], where they are usable for the [[Rocket Barrel]]. Fuel Drums are depicted with a blue paint. They do not appear as commonly as in ''Donkey Kong Country''.
In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Fuel Barrels only appear in [[Rocket Rush]], and they were redesigned to have a blue paint. Fuel Barrels have as much of a critical role as in ''Donkey Kong Country'', as the Kongs must run into the Fuel Barrels to keep the [[Rocket Barrel]] afloat. Fuel Barrels do not often appear in the level, and therefore the Kongs must be cautious to not release too much exhaust fuel.
