I don't know what I would do if I lost my old one, I have had for years. I guess go on ebay and try and find one. Mine is just the bottle with a spout you unsnap the cap off of. No springs or any dumb stuff like that.
The White House is trying to make gas cans fill great again.

In a July 24 letter, the EPA has asked gas can manufacturers to redesign their much-maligned products to fix a long-standing problem: "People hate 'em," said Florida-based eBay gas can reseller Steven Watt, 63. "It's all about the spout."

Nothing more pathetic than creating a new version that works worse than the original.

All in the name of the AGW Gaia.
 
I have "pre-ban" Eagle gas cans. 2-5 gal., 2-2.50 gal, 1-1 gal., plus a 5 gal. Kero can.....I still have my first 2.5 gallon can I bought during the gas crisis! :)

When a local hardware store went out of business I went and bought all of their stock of spout assemblies, storage caps, and replacement vents. I've refurbed/sold many a Eagle can.

I was getting $45.00 for the 5 gal. cans.

Well he stopped those snowflake windmills taking up the land. But he did though make also go back to buying US beef again. That will keep beef here high still.

This is the kind of silly BS that Trump uses to keep his parochial cult entertained.

I’ll give him credit for it.

It's all part of the left's desire to lower the standard of living to appease their AGW Gaia.

Our standard of living, they think they will keep theirs.
 
But many modern designs are often infuriatingly ineffective at actually filling tanks because the vents work so poorly. Instead of stopping vapors from flowing out the complicated spouts and relief valves, instead frustrated users often cause gasoline spills, which some critics say are far worse than a tiny amount of vapor escaping from an older design.

When we had a few acres to mow I bought a new gas can because I thought it would be better and that my husband was just being cheep using old cans.
I never figured out how to use the spout on new can without spilling gas.

Who will buy it at what price? There are anti-dumping laws after all.
 
All while the price of beef skyrockets.
Thats called Bidenflation the major cost in any food production is the cost of energy and Trump is lowering that while democrats did all they could to increase energy costs
Is it only me who sees the contradiction in skyrocketing beef prices as a result of supposed lower energy costs?

I fail to see what the price of beef has to do with properly functioning gas cans. :dunno:

Thread derail much?

My local Milsurp outlet has NATO "Jerry" cans. They're a little pricey, like over $60...but I'd still like to have at least one.
