Apparently it's been awhile since I purchased any new gas cans.
After the July seven day power outage, I decided to go out and buy a couple. I like to keep a few cans full of gas all the time, so when we do have issues, like power outages, I'm not stuck in a gas line.
What I found were cans with no vents and strange devices on the top that require two hands to operate. They also have no vent to allow the removed liquid to be replaced with air. This causes the gas to take 4 times as long to drain out of the can.
I figured that anything this stupid has government idiots finger prints all over it and it does. See this link: http://lfb.org/today/how-government-wrecked-the-gas-can/
Here's the solution, go to this website and purchase their product. It includes regular spouts that don't require 2 hands to operate and a vent. All you have to do it drill a 1/2" hole in the can and insert their vent. You need to use a wood drill bit to make a clean hole.
According to our gestopo type federal government, these folks are not allowed to sell these as gas can spouts and vents, so they are for "water" cans.
However, these spouts and vents work perfectly in gas cans and it's made of the same hydrocarbon resistant polymers that gas cans are made of. What a coincidence!
I've bought 3 packs and have used them on all different manufacturers of gas cans.
