This might be a noob question: should i keep spout up or down when i transporting it in the bed of my truck a a full tank of gas?

For safety reasons I would always transport them with the spout inside the container.

Personally I would keep cap down. I'm having to buy another spout because the one that came with it not worth a damn. Tore up the first day I had it.

clarify your question. I suspect you are overfilling the tank. You must allow "head room" so you can pump the tank up, filling the space with air.

the bowl fills up with gas but if water is present the water stays in the bottom and the gas goes to your engine. You should have put some gas into the filter half ways so you don't have to squeze that much

I elevated mine. Is it necessary? Prob not. I put an extra spigot below the original one because the original one is quite hi. It leaves a lot of unused water in barrel.

If it was, as is the case with other 'EPA Certified', it would be hard to use and leak copiously. I have several of the Carb-Compliant cans all of which leak during use and transport. A full 5 gallon EPA Compliant can is very hard to manage... trying to activate the Carb-Compliant spout while holding 30+ pounds of fuel upside down is just not possible. Fuel ALWAYS spills around the fill port.Good job, EPA! Always trust a desk-bound bunch of bureaucrats to screw up a simple can!

Vertical is best, make sure the upper line top does not loop back down to engine block. A loop will stop the gravity flow.

I keep mine in my truck and split my time between South Florida and East Texas, no problems with storing it yet. My best advise is the same as J Davidson, store it in a container, if you accidentally tip it over or spill it the product is a mess to clean up (been there done that in a toolbox and it wasn't fun). Good luck!

Since the gas is heavier than air, as long as you keep the bottle upright, it really doesn't matter what you use as a stopper. If you only drank half a bottle, laying it on it's side will spread the gas thinner making it less effective.

I don't recall it moving at all on mine. But I wasn't looking ether. A little movement should be ok...as long as its not leaking gas I wouldn't worry too much.

This product is suppose to be able to hold up to gasoline. Holds up to oil. I would drain the tank first, to make sure, the spot is dry, that your trying to repair.

It is a safety control. You get better control of the propane from the tank instead of just opening the value full.

I would. The ratio is the same. Half the amount of gas, half the can. Us the second half next time you fill up.

Anytime, and if you do keep it below the tank I would recommed and air check valve with your pump and airline, as well as a pump rated well above your tank;s volume, I would recommend a 75 gallon pump or higher...

Yeah you can unjust would not recommended dumping it into your gas tank unless your problem is from the tank. Regarding issues with running it, mope you will be ok.

I always lift the spigot upwards.. I've had no problem with the one I purchased..

I'm assuming that your mechanic did not install an in-tank pump. The key is to not expect it to lift the gas very much. Install it as low as possible, in a protected yet accessible place. Help it prime the first time as much as you can -> Full gas tank, purge the downstream line to the carb. I ran it out of gas and with 5 gallons, it primed itself. That's a good sign. These are cheap enough to carry a spare. Always good to reference what carb you have. So the answer is YES. Good luck with the Cadillac.

Always drain the gas, unless you add the preservative, it is hard to drain, but it is. Small tank
