Wavian gas can filler spout mod (non-CARBonating)

My Wavian gas can just came today. I only got the can because everywhere seemed to be out of the straight pour attachment spout, which everyone seems to say is an extra $24 must.

Well.. for about 30 seconds and 1 screw I can make this CARB thing an easy pour spout. Am missing something other than the convenience of a flexy spout?

PSA of the day if you get a Wavian gas can.

 

How is this holding up for you? Any issues with venting or sealing while stored?

 

Good tip of the day. I swear I’ve spilt more gas trying to get a CARB nozzle to stay open while refueling than I ever did with an old style flex nozzle.

 

That filler is a pile of junk. i broke the tip off in my gas tank a while back and spent the better part of an hour fishing it out with a flexible grabber before i decided to just disconnect the fill tube and get it out. bought a cheap straight tube on Amazon for $15 and it fills in about 1/10 the time and works like a champ. stupid CARB laws make no sense on gas cans.
