Nozzle Equipped Gas Can

Nozzle Equipped Gas Can FARM SHOP Miscellaneous 13-1-8 "I got tired of the mess and Clumsiness of using a funnel to refuel my garden tractor and other small engines," says Joseph Shearer, Genoa, Ill., who got the idea of attaching a fuel hose and gas pump nozzle to a 5-gal. can. "I first installed a 3/8-in. dia. nipple across from the filler hole and attached a short length of hose to it, affixing a pump nozzle to the other end. I just loosen the filler hole to let air in and hold the can up horizontally. If I were going to make it commercially I'd put a handle on the filler hole side of the container to make it easier to hold horizontally, and I'd also make the can out of plastic to keep it lightweight."
