Q: I need to remove the filter insert in the mid west diesel fuel can, as I’m going to be using a siphon hose. How is this done?
6 years ago1 Answer
- A: I used a large pair of needle nose pliers, forced one side between the filter and can neck, then got violent and yanked it out. I can’t figure out the logic of catching any debris and then pouring it back out into whatever you are fueling. This is a good can once you remove the filter, add a vent cap, and get an old fashioned pour spout.6 years agoHelpful?

7 years ago1 Answer
- A: The manufacturer does not have a specific video on just the diesel container, but they have a helpful video that demonstrates how to operate the spout that comes standard on all containers. You can find this video on http://www.midwestcan.com/faq.html7 years agoHelpful?
Q: how does the spout work
7 years ago2 Answers
- A: First, please make sure your spout is installed and screwed onto your container properly to prevent leaking. While the container is on the ground click in the red safety lock located on your spout. This will un-lock your spout for use. Pick up your container and place the tip of the spout inside your fuel tank. Using the black notch on the spout, rest notch on tank lip, push downward to retract spout. This will start the flow. Please remember you need to click in red safety lock before each use. For spout instructions and new FMD Safety Video please visit http://www.midwestcan.com/faq.html7 years agoHelpful?

Good can, decent price.

It's a solid fuel can. Does the job. The new spouts are unhelpful so I made a minor modification and now it works like a dream. Remove the O-ring from the bottom (underside) of the spout. You can then pull the inner spout apart and reveal the heavy tension spring. Remove the spring, reinsert the inner spout, and re-seat the O-ring from below. Now you don't have to press against the spout to keep fuel flowing during a pour. The removal of the spring does not disable the lock that keeps the spout closed between uses. You're welcome.

Absolutely Awful

This is the worst fuel can on the face of the planet. I'm glad I only purchased one of them. Whoever engineered the nozzle should be flogged.
