Gas Cans

Anyone know where I can buy good gas cans? The only ones I’ve been able to find are the ones with the spring loaded nozzle that I break once a week.

I like the type for you find in motorcycle stores, usually used for dirt bikes. It is more like a gas jug. It’s about 5 gallons and has a 2ft piece of tubing off the cap. You can see how much gas is in it and it’s easy to pour without spilling. I’m going to try to post a link to a picture but it probably won’t work, that’s kind of high-tech for me. -just tried and it wouldn’t let me post a link. If you search for any online motorcycle store and look for “gas can” you will find the jug type.

I just bought a few of these a few weeks ago at a local lawn and power store. So far so good. Those crappy ones they sell at Home Depot don’t even last a week without breaking.

Thanks Seth

Do the ones Seth listed. We get them from Amazon.

Best can ever.

I agree! The cans Seth recommend are more expensive, but we’ll worth it.

I get it that not spending money is important to some people.

Speed, efficiency and safety will all come your way when you spend a couple dollars on a professional fuel can.

Seriously, you really have no idea what you are missing.

Glad I have big tanks on my machine … I don’t even have a gas jug…

actually I have tried all cans and with out a vent in the back you will not get the flow I get, Tim you have me wrong money is no object to me when it comes to getting the proper tools for my business (I actually found that statement a little insulting, I’m sure you didn’t mean it to be that way) , I buy the best and if I cant buy it I make it. What I do find funny is people commenting on things they have never tried before, I have seen that with you on more then one occasion.

Guilty. I do have an opinion on what ever subject you wish to discuss.

And I do enjoy being proven wrong. For it is on those occasions which I learn the most.

If I thought you were a tightwad and that had any bearing on me, I would say “Hey Dave, quit being a tightwad and spend some of that rusty money”.

Speed, efficiency, and safety. That is what I want when dispensing fuel. Your can dumps fuel quicker than mine, but so does a drywall bucket. Safety, efficiency?. No. not even close.

So what was your impression of the can I listed?

Tim you good people in my book :wink:
