Serious question. Are these the kind that spill all over the place?

I bought 2.
I don't expect these to be the same quality as the military ones but for $14, they feel solid as hell.
I just read the spouts are bad but I've never seen a good spout. Even NATO. Use super siphons.

I've had two for some time now. No problems.
Dreadi, you might have a talk with the operator.

You have serious gas leakage problems bro. I'm concerned.

I think all gas cans are now sold with the spill-o-matic nozzles. For the environment, you know.
You can find the old ones on eBay and Amazon.

It's the strong coffee and engaging my abs constantly to protect my lower back.

I've got a couple of the jerry cans last year with no problems spilling. I assume that's why they are $40 each with a nozzle.

Jerry cans are also metal. They've always been relatively expensive.
Here's an old plastic can on eBay.

EZ pour is the answer:

+1 to that, those things make America great again. Granted, they pretty much double the cost of the gas can, but it's worth it.
On those Costco cans though - personally I really prefer big cans to have a side handle too. The top handle is great for carrying, but a side handle sure is nice for pouring so you don't have to hold the bottom of the can. Especially if your cans sit in a corner of the garage like mine with lots of spiders, cobwebs, and who knows what else.

Use Super Siphons.
No need to hold, tilt, etc. Just put on a platform that is higher than where the gas is going.
5Gal/min rate.

Making my old can(s) last.
