Gas Can Spout Replacement Kit with Filter Screen Fuel Can Nozzles Gaskets Vent Cap Drill Bit for Older Style Compatible with Midwest Blitz Gott Rubbermaind Essence Scepter Plastic Can

What It Is

This is a replacement spout kit for older-style gas cans (typically round, vented cans from brands like Midwest, Blitz, Gott, Rubbermaid, Essence, or Scepter). Includes a rigid or flexible spout, filter screen, rubber gaskets, vent cap, and a drill bit to enlarge the vent hole if needed. It’s for refilling lawn mowers, trimmers, or other small engines from non-CARB-compliant cans.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Can type: Designed for older, non-CARB-compliant gas cans with a 1.5–2 inch filler neck and a separate vent cap (not the push-button or self-venting style).
• Brands: Works with Midwest, Blitz, Gott, Rubbermaid, Essence, and Scepter plastic cans from the 1990s–early 2010s. Not for newer CARB/EPA cans with safety nozzles.
• Check before buying: Measure your can’s filler neck inner diameter (should be ~1.5–2 inches) and vent cap size (usually 1/2–3/4 inch). The kit includes a drill bit to enlarge the vent hole if it’s too small. Confirm the spout length (usually 6–8 inches) fits your can’s shape.
• OEM vs aftermarket: This is a universal aftermarket kit, not brand-specific OEM. Gaskets are basic rubber; may not seal perfectly on all cans.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Mixed. The spout and screen are functional, but gaskets can be thin and prone to cracking after a season. The drill bit is cheap but does the job.
• Installation: Easy—remove old spout, insert new one, tighten collar. May need to drill a new vent hole if your can lacks one or the original is clogged. No special tools required beyond the included bit.
• Common gotcha: The filter screen can restrict flow if you’re using ethanol-blended fuel (gums up faster). Clean it periodically. Also, the vent cap may not seal 100% if your can’s vent hole is slightly oversized—use thread tape or replace with a better cap.
• Not for: CARB-compliant cans with auto-shutoff nozzles, metal cans, or any can with a built-in vent system.

Should You Buy It

If you have an old, non-CARB gas can that’s leaking or has a broken nozzle, this kit is a cheap fix ($14.99). It’s right for DIYers who want to keep a classic can working without buying a new one. Skip it if you need a CARB-compliant solution or want a premium, leak-proof seal—look for a dedicated OEM spout instead.
