I picked up a couple of the old style cans at the local flea market.

I bought 2 brand new big gas cans from Sears the day the CG power went down so I could fill the MH tank for the gen to run.
OMG I got more gas on me than in the tank and actually could not get any of the gas into the MH tank with the way those new EPA safe gas tanks work. Bottom line there is NO vent, duh you need a vent to pour it out.:R:R
Here to tell you you can't lift the new ones up as high as a MH gas tank is and expect them to work.
I returned them to Sears and they said they could not take them back and that I must be using them wrong. Grrrr I told him I'd be more than happy to bring him to my MH and have him try to get the gas into it. Since I was covered in gas and not real happy I think I scared him and he returned my money. :B
Those new gas cans suck period.
I too am always on the look out at garage sales for the old gas cans and buy each and every one I can find.
