Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

After snapping off the spring loaded spouts on all my current el cheapo gas cans, I have been looking around a good bit for a decent one.  I think I have settled on the Eagle Type II series:

 but it is crazy expensive, I have a hard time coughing up $67 for a gas can.  Has anyone found any good alternatives that they have been very pleased with?  If not I think I will go with this one.  I also saw that sportsman's guide just came out with some pretty cheap metal jerry cans, but finding a non-problematic spout would still be a problem for me.

Thanks a lot,

Canadian cans now vent through the spout, but do not require pushing up against anything to operate.

I've spilled more gas with the cans that vent out of the spout than any other gas container, including all the vintage (and perfect working) containers that preceded them. Then they came up with the nozzle shut in, but for filling weedeaters and chainsaws it would help if I was an octopus to keep everything stable when filling. Not sure what engineers came up with these designs but they must have contracted someone to do all their yard work.

Thanks to everyone for finding suppliers to some new and vintage styles. Will definitely be checking into them.

I do have a 2-gallon can that vents through the spout (no valves), and it works OK.  I usually end up taking the spout off of my 5-gallon can and pouring the gas into the 2-gallon can, then use the smaller can to refuel my OPE.  Works good except for the lawn tractor that has a larger fuel tank...   I'll be trying the screw trick on my 5-gallon can.
