Saw this video on another site. Shows how to modify plastic fuel containers to be user friendly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lcnwdIYEfI

Just my humble opinion. Don't claim to be an engineer.
O.K. I can see a potential issue with the rubber valve stem and another video had a link to the old style vents you could buy. Alternatively I guess I could do what I've had on my 10+ year old can that the vent cap retainer broke and I lost the cap. That is a wooden down with a point on it that I "JAM" into the hole with a string on it so I don't loose it.
You didn't originally say the "UNSAFE" comment was purely an opinion, but was presented as a statement of fact IMO and that's why I questioned it.

Sorry, I thought it was obvious, by the lack of engineering credentials in my post, it was an opinion. Guess not. Are not 99% of all posts here opinion?
My opinion was based upon the video, not how further modifications, posted later, would overcome the flaws shown therein.
