I have several of these, some with pop-up flexible plastic spouts, some with solid bent plastic spouts that have caps on them, and some new ones like the photo you have here with the lever and flex pipe. I get them at Goodwill for cheap, complete or just the caps. Maybe $2 for the entire 1 or 2 gallon can. I have a series of three 1 gallon, three 2 gallon and two 5 gallon cans. I got them all used and cheap. New I have only seen the complete cans for sale.

You can get them on Ebay, but they are usually more with shipping than a whole new can. One bent spout there is $15???... *cough* Gimme a break. $4 is a good price if you can find them online.

4 bucks...for just the cap...not the whole spout thing...just the black cap thats missing on this can as well...

Found this at Lowes. I did see on another site a person called the company who makes the gas cans, the company sent them the replacement parts.

Never had a cap for that type of spout. I guess it might be a good idea to keep crap out of there. Amazon lists a 2-pack of flex tubes but they are out of stock. I do not think that they come with the caps though.

I just carved a few caps one day out of some wood laying around. Just sticks in the hole like a cork kinda.

Or maybe even a "cork". Good excuse to drink a couple bottles of wine.

Never thought of capping mine. Good idea. Maybe the redneck fix--piece of rag?

The only wine I'll ever put my lips on will be out of a box and it will be straight from that box (no cup). Otherwise please hand in your man card!

Fine, then get a bottle of wild turkey or maker's mark.

You can buy rubber stoppers for dirt cheap from just about anywhere. 4 bones for just the cap is robbery.

lukem i gave up alcohol 6 years ago..but i agree if u drink wine from a glass..man card needs to be revoked..

I have a couple of these, the cap is nice, but unnecessary. It doesn't seal the container, just keeps debris out of the spout.

 

[steeltowninwv]

mr whoopee that exactly what i want them for.....so im not pouring wood chips in my saws

 

[BrotherBart]

Corks. Dollar store.

 

[steeltowninwv]

so..u all are telling me...just a normal wine bottle cork will work?..

 

[steeltowninwv]

well just tried the wine cork....doesnt work....and if u wittle away at the cork to get it to fit...its pretty flaky and sends cork shavings down into the gas can.....

 

[HDRock]

Replace the whole thing, these fit old and new cans (broken link removed to http://www.ebay.com/itm/221184371528?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649)
