    Default Trying to find decent gas can


    Husband needs new 1 for chainsaw gas. Got 1 at WM this morning. These designs are getting really STUPID. Taking it back. You have to turn this green collar thingy and then push down on spout to vent it and let gas out. But everytime you let go of spout you have to turn collar again and then push back down. WTH. It is a Black & Decker can. got to be a better 1 somewhere. I will search friday. It was frustrating me so I know husband won't like it.

    Good luck, big brother keeping you safe gets real frustrating.
    The best way to get to where you want to be in the future is to act like you are there TODAY.

    Got 1 at local hardware store. It has a button you push. He had the other kind too and didn't like them either. Both agreed they were junk. they were made by Briggs & Stratton. You would think they would know better.

    I've looked over the new cans at different stores. Good luck finding something you like.
    I have the older ones with the semi locking yellow cap on the black spout. The pressure will build in the can and blow the cap off. How many of this style can do you see around town without caps? I have 6 5 gallon cans, 2 2 gallon cans and 2 1 gallon cans, but only 4 caps. I was thinking of putting a piece of baggy over the spout, adding some caulk to a bottle cap and pressing onto the spout. Let if cure a few days.
