do it yourself - scepter gas can spout

[ramonortiz55]

How much did you end up spending on all the pieces to make your own?

Probably about $10

Am courious if you have tested the spout yet. I did not realize the PVC liked gasoline.

tested and worked fine

So how well does it pour with no vent? Seems like it would be slow going.

scepter has a vent hole - no issues

ya there you go. All in one move / part.

yes, this works perfect!

Not to hijack the thread but has anyone found a decent replacement rubber gasket for the GI Jerry can lid? The last two I picked up have been junk.


Back to the current thread.... Nice work. Love me some creative frugality.

Buy a sheet/pack of cork. Can be found in craft stores or automotive stores for gaskets.

I was very interested in this solution. However when I found out it would save me $10. I thought, I can't drive to the store for $10.
