Get a clean oil bucket and a funnel. They will last for several years
Gas Cans & Accessories | Canadian TireNot sure of the brand of can, but I can unscrew the entire spout mechanism just like when you fill it at the pump and I have a giant funnel. Works well and fills fast. I would like a link to Canadian Tire if possible.
I have one of these for gas into the mower, I don't have a diesel tractor yet. But when I get it, I'll get one of the Eagle cans for that as well.I have a metal 5 gallon Eagle for gas and a Just-Rite with the attached pour spout for diesel. I prefer the Eagle can.

That looks pretty cool, only part that bothers me is the "EPA approved". Most of the time, if they like it, I wont. :tango_face_smile_biI've wanted to try one of these out.

Only downside I see is the fuel container your drawing from needs to be higher than the one your filling.That looks pretty cool, only part that bothers me is the "EPA approved". Most of the time, if they like it, I wont. :tango_face_smile_bi
I did that as well, except I got a smoking deal on a brand new 120v transfer pump. I still have the 5 gal cans I had before, but will use them if I take the tractor to my dads or inlaws. But its so nice to now just pull up to the barrel, start up the pump and pump away.Now that I have my kubota b8200 for work tractor plus snowblowing, and my kubota zd21 for mowing, I bought a 55gal drum for diesel fuel plus a hand crank with a 15' hose. It should last me the year, put diesel kleen additive for antigel and centane booster to keep it fresh. Then I just pull the machine up to it and crank for a few minutes and I get a full tank.
I got tired of lugging 8 5gal jugs to the gas station, now I just put the drum on the trailer and take it to the station that pumps heating oil so no road tax.
That appears to be the EZ-Pour product.You might try this "Water Can" spout. It just happens to be fuel resistant......
Maybe the local authorities will overlook this version. ;-)

Try spelling the word with out any spaces as it should be spelled. i.e. petcock.As far as drilling a vent hole in the 5G cans and potential spillage ... what about a pet **** for draining radiators? Open with a half turn or so to vent, close for storage/transport.
They should thread right into the plastic cans tight enough with the right size hole drilled.
(OK, word censors are stupid. You know the work though, right? Fighting rooster and all.)
