That was an excellent video. The idea that you thought to cover a gas container is awesome. This was just what I needed. You're far superior to the instructions. Thank you
Stupid question, sir....im assiming you have to store the filled gas can with the spout contraption exposed, not inside the tank. I just bought a metal gas can at harbor frieght and the "naughty bits," so to speak, hide away nicely inside the can.
Obviously those responding to indicate that this is a brilliant design are big burly guys with amazing wrist strength as opposed to a 5'10" 180 lb average guy. Without a rear handle this is almost impossible to manage. One hand is required to push in and hold down the awkward button, while the other must lift a full can (35 lbs) and tilt using the wrist strength only. I would not recommend. BTW Jimmy isn't demonstrating with a full can.
You’re right Drake. I still use this can a lot - it’s best when you rest the lip of the can on something and then push the button in to release the fuel. The design could definitely be better. Thank you for watching 🇺🇸🤘
The mesh on the inside of the spout is actually a flame arrestor. The old metal cans you had to rip them out or it would spill fuel when you tried to fill it!
Looks like a great gas can, Jimmy Garage do the filter comes out so you could clean the debris you might catch. Also it wouldn't be bad if it had a handle on the back too so you don't have to hug it when you pour it. 👍
Great Video! The non-locking option is a non-starter for me. I don't want to have to hold that button while humping a 40# gas can with no back handle. Too bad, as they had the start to a great design.
Thank you! I agree, it’s not the BEST design in the world. It’s useful for smaller applications, but that rear handle and a locking button would be helpful when pouring a couple gallons at a time.
Haha AWESOME! It should definitely say Garage Gear!!! Lol! Thanks for the shout out my man! Two days ago I was talking to my wife about doing a shout out to you. You can expect something soon! Also didn’t see this video on my feed 🤔 wondering if it’s because I’ve been watching too many videos on worm castings lol! 🤣
@@jimmysgarage9068 haha I have some small ones left over. They’re not very big but if you shoot me an email with your address I’ll send them your way !👍
Do you have to keep your thumb on the button the whole time, or does it lock down so you can let go and use that hand to help hold the can up, since there's no handle on the back? Like, for instance, when I fill my tractor, I know I'm going to pour in the whole 5 gallons, I would want to hold up that gas can with both hands if I could, and I wouldn't want to keep my thumb down the whole time. Seems like that would get painful!
There isn’t a lock option on it. I suppose this is most ideal for pouring a gallon at a time, as 5 gallons could be a little taxing to hold the container for that long. It does flow rather quickly though!
Anyone manage to find a non-safety spout that fits this thing? The ones i've tried won't thread on. I was going to try removing the threaded ring and using it with another spout, but damned if i can figure out how they got it on there in the first place. I think it was just born that way.
Very good vid like your personality and you remind me of Ted Nugent he’s a nut but he gets the point out there whatever he might address but thank you very much dude did a great job I think other guys can benefit instead of having a dreary personality as I have seen before thank you!!
That is not a filter it is a flame arrester. Also it is hard for us weak people to push that damn button down. If it was a filter if you got any trash in it, It would come right back into your pour!!! I drilled a hole to put a nail to hold the button down while I am pouring!! Otherwise it would be usless!!😛😛😛😛

Thank you Sam! I appreciate the feedback. Thank you for watching 🇺🇸🤘
Good review on how to use it🙂👍
🇺🇸🤘
2:15 it's not a filter, it's a flame arrestor.
Thanks for the heads up! 🇺🇸🤘

Love the video jimmy , wondering how they have held up over the past year or so if you wouldn’t mind uploading a second video on them.
I could do a follow up. Good idea.
@@jimmysgarage9068 thank you very much, plan on grabbing some for myself here in a couple of days. Look pretty good to me
I can't get the fuel valve to go in so it can be pushed down. It's new.
Uh oh!
@@jimmysgarage9068 I worked with it a bit and got it to work. It's not easy but I guess it needs breaking in.
see how you are holding the can from the bottom? there should be a handle on the back
Ideally, yes there should be. Thank you for watching 🇺🇸🤘🏻
The mesh on the inside of the spout is actually a flame arrestor. The old metal cans you had to rip them out or it would spill fuel when you tried to fill it!
Roger that! 🇺🇸🤘
You tried pushing and holding that button with one hand and pour 5 gallons with one hand. Fucking impossible.
I bet!
There is no air vent so it does not pour smoothly--- ALL the new style gas cans are hard to use---
Lame-o
Thats not a filter in the throat of the tank. Its a fire suppression device.
Roger that.
Looks like a great gas can, Jimmy Garage do the filter comes out so you could clean the debris you might catch. Also it wouldn't be bad if it had a handle on the back too so you don't have to hug it when you pour it. 👍
That would be a nice feature for sure. And yes the filter/screen comes out. 🇺🇸🤘
@@jimmysgarage9068 The one I got the screen dose not come out!!😡😡
I am going down to buy 2 at my local store.
🤘
In and down
🇺🇸🤘
No rear handle ?
Nope. Weird, I know.
If you actually use them for any length of time, they eventually leak.
Good to know.
I have 2 of these I like them wish they had a handel on the back little easier to pour
Agreed on that. Thank you for watching 🇺🇸🤘
Will this gas can work for vehicles?
Yes sir
Great Video! The non-locking option is a non-starter for me. I don't want to have to hold that button while humping a 40# gas can with no back handle. Too bad, as they had the start to a great design.

@@jimmysgarage9068 True. I guess my bias is that I'd only use it for filling a JD Tractor, hence the hard-to-handle comment.
That is a good gas can !
Let’s here it for HF !
🇺🇸🤘
Haha AWESOME! It should definitely say Garage Gear!!! Lol! Thanks for the shout out my man! Two days ago I was talking to my wife about doing a shout out to you. You can expect something soon!

If you had Garage Gear stickers, I'd slap one on there and re-brand it.
@@jimmysgarage9068 haha I have some small ones left over. They’re not very big but if you shoot me an email with your address I’ll send them your way !👍
Or hear me out. Bring back to old styles. Just a can with a nozzle.
That would work too. 🇺🇸🤘

painful! painful!!!🥵🥵
Here's the deal when you take a cap off of it .you should be able to pour it up and down it's not good enough all the f****** gas cans nowadays suck
They aren’t like the old ones. That’s for sure…
Anyone manage to find a non-safety spout that fits this thing? The ones i've tried won't thread on. I was going to try removing the threaded ring and using it with another spout, but damned if i can figure out how they got it on there in the first place. I think it was just born that way.
Cool video Jimmy, do they sell a yellow diesel garage boss?
Thanks man! They do sell a diesel can, not sure if it’s garage boss brand. I actually have one - I’ll have to check the label.
This thing needs a handle in the rear, otherwise, it's hard to lift and pour with 25 lbs of weighted pressure on the wrist. I don't recommend it
It is a little tricky without the rear handle. I do like that it’s a thinner tank though.
Very good vid like your personality and you remind me of Ted Nugent he’s a nut but he gets the point out there whatever he might address but thank you very much dude did a great job I think other guys can benefit instead of having a dreary personality as I have seen before thank you!!
I appreciate that Rick! Thank you for watching! 🇺🇸🤘
That spout is garbage and that can doesn't have a back handle. The whole thing is garbage, my brother has one and it's a complete pain in the a**.
Thanks for watching! 🇺🇸🤘

Junk cans.
