A bunch of my Blitz 5-gallon portable gas containers have the lousy spout broken (cracked around the center so that they now leak).
The company appears to be out of business, even though the gas cans are only a couple of years old.
The gas cans are fine. Just the spouts are broken. I never use the spout anyway. I just remove the spout and pour into a funnel.
Since I just use the spout as a gas cap, is there a replacement gas cap that you know about for the 5 gallon Blitz gas cans?
I believe you want this:
I will try that with the two broken spouts that I have. They do seem to be "stuck" in, so, to remove the centerpiece, I have to "break" something.
If you see any REAL gas cans at junk shops, flea markets, yard sales.... Grab them!
By this, you mean the pre CARB "dribble gas on your feet and leak like hell" cans, correct?
Google,,, Vintage Gasoline Cans ..I have about half a dozen of them.They don't have any plastic crap either.
Go to a Tractor Supply or many other farm type stores and you will find a replacement cap and spout assembly that is sold to replace "water can" parts. It is a kit with 2-3 threaded rings, a spout and caps to fit various "water cans". Since the companies who made/make blow molded fuel containers also made water storage cans, the parts fit like a glove.
I have a few of the kits as I have a few "water containers" around here.
