Making Gas Cans Great Again Fix Gas Can Right Way

[@kenjohnston2426]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who cuts off those self locking things on the caps.

I know right, thanks

Was able to remove 2 of these inserts in under a minute. Holding the can spout opening upside down (to keep the insert from falling into the can)... Used a mini needle nose pliers and inserted the tip of the pliers between the top of the can and the top of the insert about 1/4" and pulled UP on the filter. The filter comes up about 1/8" above the top of the red spout opening. Now I take a small vice grip and grip the edge of the insert that is now sticking up outside the can and pull the insert out. Don't have to wrestle with the insert at all.

Good tips

It helped me I modified a gas can a little differently I hate the vent free gas cans

[@garyjones2582]

I recently had to buy a gas can, and I had no idea what trash was out there these days.. thx for showing us your fix...

[@TNYankee2020]

Thanks for watching. Appreciate your feedback.

[@kkutube1972]

I purchased 2 of these cans last week and had to do the same for the pump.

[@TNYankee2020]

Awesome, check back in this weekend. I'm actually having a cap update video coming out.

[@lorenray9479]

Just got mine. One filter popped in. Wire hook got it out next one the wire held it while I needlenosed it out. The barbs are on the smooth sides. My extended gas can to gen system has access thru replacement caps now.

[@johnvolz6051]

Be careful pulling the filter out with pliers: you can deform the can thread. Also, be careful not to get silicone on the cap threads.

No need to cut nozzle shorter,just take the sprng out.

[@TNYankee2020]

Thanks for watching. I cut the nozzle shorter to keep it out of the gas not for any other purpose.

Make a link to contact the EPA. Start a movement to repeal the regulation...If they get 100,000+ responses in 30 days.

[@realifethunder]

Well, if they get 100,000 responses it only means that they will respond to your request, not that they will repeal the regulation...

[@railroad9000]

@@realifethunder Probably come up with something ever dumber!

[@davidsaucedo717]

Won’t the gas melt the silicone?

[@TNYankee2020]

It lasted quite a while but it did eventually so I've come to understand that. I've just recently switched to another cap I made a video on but I still love the cans. The CM conceps cap works really nice. Thanks for watching.

A hot gun will soften plastic for flexible removal!

As a normal person, we should break away from California if only to get away from all these environmental regulations

[@Murrelthepearl]

Do you still like this Tera Pump? Is it still working after a year?

[@TNYankee2020]

Murrel the Pearl. Hi. I love it. Still works great. Key is I pump water through after I use it for 30 seconds.
