What Customers Are Saying

The diesel fuel can has a flawed design that makes it challenging to use. The short spout nozzle, weak actuating handle, and difficult safety switch cause frequent spills and messes. The non-vented can also results in slow, uneven fuel flow, requiring the user to hold the can in awkward positions. While some found the can durable, the overall consensus is that it is a poorly engineered product that should be avoided in favor of higher-quality alternatives.

Decent can, irritating spout

Would Recommend

Can is durable, spout is irritating. Because of the flexibility of the plastic in the can, even after the air supply tube in the filler spout stops letting in air to supposably stop the fuel from coming out, the sides of the tank squeeze in and you still end up spilling fuel anyway. So, same result. More complicated procedure.

Diesel jug

Would Not Recommend

I have owned a lot of different jugs in my 52 year's, these are the worst I have ever used. Will buy something different. Leak everywhere.

It’s a gas (Deisel) can.

Would Recommend

The only complaint I have is that it is hard to keep the trigger engaged in the large fuel filler pipe on my pickup. Otherwise, it does its job.

Does it’s job

I used it without the spout and have no issues. Must start pour slow since there is no air hole so glugging does occur if you try to pour to quickly to start.
