Plastic Fuel can.

any recommendations for a replacement fuel can? my fuel refilling container has a crack and needs to be replaced. it's old. the new ones nowadays have various different fill spouts that seem like they're going to be fiddly.  Thanks.

Im done with those cheap, complicated plastic spouts.
Been thinking of getting this can. 

50 bucks for a friggin gas can. nope. ha ha.  the specter is probably the one. 2 gal. not sure I'm sold on the spring force. I guess there's a spring. but this guy likes it >>

Unfortunately they all now come with a PITA "safety" filler on them.  I guess the best you can do is find the one that annoys you the least!

We've seen fuel cans with old-style spouts at yard and estate sales.  A vendor at Mid-OH had a dozen or so a couple years ago, but they were all sold the first day.  We have a few, but they'll only be available when pried from our cold, dead hands. 

Try Craigslist & fleaBay for old-style cans.

"Modern" no-spill / spill-proof / "smart" (?)-fill nozzles are little better than spring-loaded butt plugs with automatic fart vents.  At least that's what we've heard...

There are kits that claim to replace the spouts on newer fuel cans with conventional flexible spouts sans the fiddly parts.  We're only aware of them, can't vouch for any of them.

After every class we have to top up 17 motorcycles. I've found that this 'MidWest' can works well. It's particularly good at shuting off the flow when the fuel gets within 2" of the cap.
 
It's a bit 'fiddly' but not too difficult.

KZQ's pic. that one has a spring that seems to require too much force to operate it. however, the spring can be modified or possibly changed and a vent added. to improve its usability. it might be possible to swap over my old spout to a new can. at the minimum I'm expecting to add a vent. then replace the spout if the safety spout is a nuisance. something the careless shouldn't do. Safety 3rd !!! ha ha.

You can buy old-style plastic spouts on Amazon for a few bucks and it turns the new "safe" can into a usable one.

I bought this and it works well.
