Other New Gas Can Nozzles !@##$@%

Whats up with the new spouts on the red gas cans from wal mart?

Retarded attempt at control.

Anybody had any creative ideas for Ixnaying the new spouts?

Zip tie the handle open? are you talking about the cans with the handle on the spout that has to be pressed to let gas flow?

Buy a real gas can, not from Walmart?

All those spill proof ones suck. They are so flimsy, and pour so slow. I bought some LC cans this summer, and couldn't be happier with them.

If you are talking about those one with the little tab you have to 'unlock' to use, look under the handle and you can get in there and removed that interlock thing. Then you have a spring loaded pour valve. I like mine, they do pour a bit slow, but not bad at all.

Is this the style your talking about?

I laugh when people show up with those, race cans! FTW

Funny, I haven't noticed a big difference in my riding depending on which can I filled with.

Maybe I havn't put enough foam in my gas cans to make a difference.

If you have a $10.00 ski buy a $10.00 gas can,

That's fine for the Kawi guys, but what about the rest of us?

I finally switched to VP cans and couldn't be happier.
Yah, $25.50 a pop, but well worth it.

In Cali the Napa I went to only sold the race jug but not the spout to get around the rules, but offered a homemade spout on the side lol.

Just go to lowes and buy the male fitting and 2' of clear hose.

I thought you guys were running foam in your tanks so it shouldn't matter, I am running LC jugs myself and couldn't be happier. :1244:

I had to buy 2 of the "safe pour" cans when a gas station at the beach would not fill my black Jazz race cans. I've since bought red Jazz cans haven't had a problem. I still use the "sp" cans around the house and they spill more than a Jazz.

cycle gear gas cans

VPs suck in my experience. they leak, gasket pops out,
their valve siezes when exposed to gasoline, cap and vent vap cracked immediately
Scout yard sales and flea markets for old style vented jugs

Exactly! I know I've posted this on here before and for a forum that relies on modifications, it amazes me at the lack of initiation that people show when it comes to something that doesn't work exactly how they want it to. Took me about 15 seconds trying to figure out how to pour gas and another 15 seconds to figure out that concept sucked and how I can "fix" the problem. A pair of wire cutters works wonders on that stupid "store/pour" switch underneath the handle. Now I have a gas can that I can turn upside down and it won't spill a drop until I press the trigger. I liked those thing so much that I went out and bought a nozzle just like it to go on my gas can that had the old straight style nozzle.

i also use the new style and cut the spring tab thing. i actually got the idea a while back from a thread on the x.
