Gov't mandates gas can flame arrestors.

Govt???? why would anyone listen to people that lie and steal from us ?????

^^^^ yes indeed

The gas cans thing is crazy. Another in the long list of things that schools should consider teaching. Like how about a class in “common sense”?

Just think of the money scurrying across that border.
That’s why it’s wide open.

You can find gas can modifiers online. New hose like the old ones. Vents and vent caps. I drill a hole near the back of the top handle and put a screw in it.I also use old hydraulic 5 gal containers to get diesel.

CPSC Requires Lifesaving Flame Mitigation Devices on Gas Cans and Other Portable Fuel Containers

The thing is, once they make something idiot proof, they come out with a better idiot!

Yeah I've been thinking about buying a 125 gal fuel tank with a DC powered fuel pump. I bid on one at an auction last week but when it got up to $900.00 I let the other guy have it. I can buy the same tank and pump new for around $1400.00. I just haven't had that much extra cash to spend on one right now.

Good quality GPI (Great Plains Industries) 12V new drum pumps are selling at starting little over $400 on the eBay, but there are many cheap alternatives....

All I can say is these work trouble free, I have bee using them well over 20 years.
