Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

They work, and they work pretty well. This is one of many such spout replacements for gas cans. All of them serve the purpose of enabling you to deep-six the cruddy monstrosities that California EPA "experts" have foisted on us under the guise of consumer safety. I have a few points about replacement spouts: One, don't throw away your can's original screw-cap (...with a hole in it), at least, not until you've verified that the replacement screw cap works on your gas-can. I've replaced various crappy California-mandated @&*%##$ NON-pour spouts on a dozen cans, and I've had at least three where the new screw cap DIDN'T FIT THE THREADS ON THE CAN. In this here particular product, they give you not one, but TWO replacement screw-caps, but I'm telling you that for one of my cans, NEITHER OF THEM WORKED...so I was glad I'd kept the old one. Two, it's best if your can is completely empty and dry before you drill the hole for the breather. Most of the time you get at least a few shreds of plastic falling into the can, and it's easier to get them out if the can is dry. Alternatively, you can add a quart or two of water to the can, and rinse the scraps out, repeating as needed...after which you can wait a week for the few drops of water to evaporate, or point a hair dryer through a metal funnel into the open pour-hole and dry it out in five minutes. ...Or you can just say the heck with it, and live with a few drops of water mixed into your gas [guess which method I prefer.] Three, when you drill out the hole for the breather-valve, DON'T DRILL THROUGH A SEAM IN THE CAN! The instructions may or may not tell you to drill the hole in the center of a flat area near the top of the can, but it won't make any difference if you drill it an inch off center, and you won't have a leak when the little breather-valve can't seal on that rough, ugly seam. Four, I've bought three of these, haven't needed the spout extension on any of them. I suppose if you need more than about 8 inches to reach a deeply recessed fill-mouth, a 10-inch extension might be a good idea. Me, I've never had a machine with such a poorly-designed fill-hole. I haven't tried it, but I'll bet you could stretch the opening of the extension to fit over the can's primary spout -- if so, the extension could serve as a spare spout, rather than just another piece of plastic junk that serves no purpose...and which you probably won't be able to find anyway, assuming that you ever do need a really long spout. All of these wondrous words of wisdom are just my humble opinions. And remember, folks: free advice is worth every penny you pay for it.
