I just tried your technique and it worked perfectly and left the filter intact! Now I have an inlet filter for my shop vac that will keep it from functioning properly so OSHA should be happy.

I just shove the sucker inside. Doesn’t interfere because I only use a siphon to get the gas out, but I could see it perhaps being a problem if I poured.

Agreed, well said! 😁

They do that because 1 in every 1 million people cannot hold a gas can and talk at the same time.

The politicians have to make themselves important somehow! 🙃

The latest design is even more aggravating and spills even more gas everywhere. And I thought the whole reason for a "special" can was to properly vent as well. I've had some swell up and split their seams (leaking even more fuel and becoming consequently useless) not even in direct sunlight. Nothing beats a simple nozzle that seals and a cap on the end that seals - clown world ends there.

Despite the fact that several people are trying to make others out as bad people for preferring the old style "cans", if people weren't so lazy to put the yellow cap back on the pourer spout, they wouldn't have to worry about the fumes, or whatever. I still gladly have the old style, and even an old round metal gas can like my Grandfather had. I have never had to fuss with "safety" features, and if I have anything to say about it, I won't.

Those cheap plastic nozzles eventually crack and leak. Funnel is better in many situations. Usually lawnmowers is all I use gas directly from the can. Premix for 2strokes gets mixed a pop bottle at a time and couple bottles of mix would overfill the chainsaws and weed eater. No stale premixed fuel left in the can to go to waste.

Yes Lumber nearly doubled in price last year. The fires that happened in California were mostly crown fires and hurt the lumber industry much less than you would think because most of that standing timber is harvestable. The wildfires typically don’t burn the entire tree it just burns the fuel around it and the needles and small limbs of the tree. it kills the tree but they’re still standing and they’re still perfectly fine for the lumber mills to cut down and process into Lumber. Forest in the Midwest are adapted to fire and actually require it from time to time in order to keep a forest healthy. Some of the reasons were seeing such large wildfires in the pacific west is because of the policies that govern Ben 10 Cal fire have instituted over the decades such as aggressively fighting every Wildfire that occurs while simultaneously gutting the lumber industry. This is allowed our forests to build up a tremendous amount of fuel that explodes into these fires. But the Forests recover quickly.

Actually it isnt a filter at all it is a flame arrestor. The purpose of the thing that looks like a filter is to keep a flame from entering the can and causing a explosion.

No joke they sell you the same shit they used to make the cans come standard with

I believe you can also buy a vent/cap to add to them to do the same thing,just have to drill a hole in the top of the can.

This is exactly what i did. Use the screw to make a little hole and be done with it

There was another video that showed using a Valve Stem from a tire as a vent. Drill a hole, unscrew the Schrader Valve, use a piece of wire to feed it through the hole, and snap it into place. Unfortunately the gasoline eats the rubber, I found that out the hard way. I fixed it by using the all metal bolt-on tire stems, a bit more expensive, but way ,onger lived.

@@toadman506 Yep, all my cans have Schrader valves on all my gas cans with the valve stem removed for more air flow. Been lucky and haven't noticed any leaks due to the rubber getting degraded.

Many of these “upgrades and improvements” where originally put implemented by the State of California for express purpose of “preventing spills and excessive fuel vapor escaping into the environment” with most being later picked up by the EPA at federal level. The manufacturers implemented on their assembly lines across the board to save money. These fixes have caused more spills and wastage than any of old style cans.

You're welcome! I'm really glad this video is helping others…

The spout is designed to keep vapors from escaping. This is a major source of air pollution and an explosive hazard. Now I think the design sucks but the intent was good. The "screen" is a flame arrestor to prevent explosions if a spark happens. Honestly we need grounding straps for filling portable fuel cans the same way airplanes do. Probably need them in cars to, but in a car this is mitigated by having a fuel system that doesn't allow vapors up the filler neck. These rules don't happen in a vacuum, they are the result of accidents and an effort to protect consumers. Just because it never happened to you doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

​@@EthosAtheos The vapors escape any way when you pour the fuel Einstein. It's just more government stupidity.

@@charlesfreeman1224 No not really. The vapors that are being targeted by the EPA are long term evaporation. When gasoline is heated, say in a plastic container in the sun. The gasoline gives off more vapors. Gasoline also expands a lot compared to water when heated. So the can is constantly breathing, pushing out vapors when heated and sucking in clean air when cooled. This is why your 5 gallon gas can when full has about 25% air space at the top. People still over fill them not understanding why you shouldn't. Yes some vapor does escape while emptying the fuel can. But the long term evaporation is lower than an open container. Do the experiment, put a cup of fuel in 2 Maison jars in the sun. Cap one of them and leave the other open. After a month go check how much gasoline is missing form each.

No lie!

I installed tire valve stems without the core. When I use it I unscrew the valve stem cap. Pours like it should. When I'm done, screw the little cap back on

Good solution for probably the worst flaw.

I bought a five gallon can that is supposed to vent the can through the pour spout. All it would do is leak gas all over no matter what I did. I used an older straight through spout without all that nonsense and put a small screw in the other side of the can for a removable air vent. Works great!

Yes, a small vent opening would help the flow to be smoother when pouring. This would result in less spill, and seems like a safer option to me. This used to be common in older models. Why has it been taken out of current gas cans? To save production cost??

Just buy a moto cross gas can. It has a rubber hose with basically a cork on the end of it

I wonder if the new concept is the brainchild of the new world order thinkers. They really discourage all fossil fuels, and this new spout certainly discourages any desire to fill a lawnmower or generator.
