I just tried to empty one of these gas cans from hell into my truck so I could fill it with fresh gas for the generator with Ian on the way. It seems that with gas cans, in any event you're going to have some leakage around the cap as you pour. The spiffy safety spout slowed down the flow as I grunted and strained to hold the heavy can in place in the tank because the spiffy safety valve kept closing and the spout was barely long enough to penetrate the opening of the tank. I had to keep one hand pressed hard against that damned valve and bodily keep the can in place. By the time I gave up, took the spout off, and poured it into smaller cans that all leaked and spilled, I was bathed in gasoline and there was a puddle that filled the tailgate of my truck. Out of 5 gallons, I probably got 3 and 1/2 in the truck. You cannot pour gas without spilling some because the surface tension is so low. The longer it takes and the slower it flows, the more you're going to spill. Is there any way to get the idiots at the EPA to give us back a simple can with a vent hole and a long narrow spout that fits into a vehicle's gas tank?
