Jerry Cans (5 Viewers)

[COS80]

What's the hot ticket on jerry cans? I see the new ones have EPA compliant nozzles, which would seem to be a mistake (unless they're drastically different from the ones on regular gas cans), and used ones are a crapshoot, of course. I didn't see any replacement "water can" nozzles for jerry cans, but maybe i didn't look hard enough.

What has worked well for you?

Scepter/surplus military 20L plastic ones are my go-to.

I quit the metal ones a long time ago.

The VP racing cans are pretty good. Tractor Supply has a pretty good one as well. Long filler nozzles with no weird anti spill crap.

Does VP make cans in the shape of the NATO cans? I have two "regular" VP cans, but I don't think they'd fit in my carrier (though I've never tried).

No issues with bulging in the heat/sun?

I don't think so unfortunately.

No, I’ve never noticed anything atypical.

I’d suggest getting the OEM wrench to tighten and loosen the caps though.

What nozzle do you use? I'm finding the cans, but no nozzles.

This is the style that I have.

I have used Wavian for decades for fuel and plastic Scepter cans for water. Both pretty much set the standard for their intended uses.
