Neat gadget discovered

With the virus freak out high and gas prices low, I figured it was a good time to cycle my 5 gallon gas cans stored in garage. These are new safety style and took forever to put in truck

I found the attached picture on amazon to add a flow vent to new cans.

Thought it may be useful to others

All my cans that came with that dumb spout and no vent, I went to Ace and picked up the good spouts and they came with that vent included in the package..Those vent sure make it much easier to poor fuel out!! I picked up fuel yesterday for $1.92 / gal in Jasper.

I bought 4 a few years ago and they sent me a pack of 20. Tried giving them away the extras but nobody wanted them

I got some several years ago. They make it so you can use your gas can again.

Been there, done that. I did 20 cans, some for my lakehouse and watercraft, and others at home. You have to drill a hole, very carefully, and then deal with the plastic shavings. Truly a pain and, if doing it again, would probably use a hot iron/solder tip to melt the hole instead of drilling. On the positive side, probably takes one-quarter the time to empty the jug.

Good soldering tip (pun intended).

Great.

How about link to good spouts! Have trouble finding.

Need some of them for sure.

I just screw a self-drilling screw where I want the vent. When I get ready to pour the gas I remove the screw. Don't put it all the way back in and it's easy to take out with your fingers - no need for a wrench
