There's no better example of the nanny state than the contraptions on gas cans that make them unusable.
 
Nice find. What's with the traffic light in your garage and what intersection is it missing from?
 
:thumbsup:

Whoever designed those needs to go shoot themselves in the face with a 10 guage shotgun. When i flew down to pickup my 69 Satellite i though it would be good to have some extra gas since the fuel guage was broken. They don't work worth a damn when your gas is behind the license plate. Was hot too and when i opened the trunk the damn thing had swelled up like a spotted hog and looked like it was ready to blow.
 
Rc are you stealing stoplights from chargerverts neighborhood over there???:thumbsup:
 
Thankfully someone is still making and selling those nozzles and vent caps. I did that to each of my cans also.
 
Nannies that think the fumes are going to go back into the can and stay there.... I refuse to do so... bought all the old style I could find a few years back. I have over 40 of them...

I will never buy another "gas can" again after I bought a few of these.

Just so everyone knows, Plastic gasoline cans have caused alot of fires over the years due to
the static charge in dry weather that is generated from simply pouring the gas out of one container
into another! Picture you filling up your snow blower in your open garage and having a static spark
jump between the can and snow blower tank. You see the fire start and immediately get startled
and drop the can! Game over. Hemi Cuda GONE along with the whole garage and snow blower.
That's why when trucks are filled at the refinery, they clip on multiple ground straps from the rack
to the truck. Everyone be careful!

I bought that at Carlisle last summer. It’s a working unit with a relay that alternates each light. Not bad for a hundred bucks. One of these days I’ll hang it up in the garage.
 
I have one too...
 
Dickie you have nozzle for modern cars. They make a larger one for faster pouring. It wouldn't hurt to have spare gasket for nozzle to can. Had one come partly off and messed it up. Gaskets and nozzle posted may not be correct for your nozzle? Check that out.
