California To Lose MPG and Emissions Authority

Glad I could help breathe new life into your old gas cans cuz I know you would never-ever modify a new “safe” gas can.

It never should have been given this authority.

It was either that or they were going to drill holes through the mountains and install giant fans to suck the smog out.

get gas stations to sell non-ethanol gas.

You would have to get Nebraska farmers to stop growing corn. Maybe they could be switched to pot or hemp?

I’ve learned to stick a long rubber line in for air when I use them. Works great.

I removed the spigots they come with and replaced them with regular caps and invested ten bucks in a little pump from Harbor Freight problem solved. I can't pick up and tilt a 5 gallon can anymore anyway.

Free us from low flush toilets Mr. President.

Low flush toilets actually work, if yours doesn't then time to upgrade to one of the newest ones. Mine works better than any stool I have ever had and I bought it over 10 years ago, had to get a taller stool anyway and I was shocked at how well it worked.

I’m not asking for that ...only to add pumps that sell non-ethanol gas. They can co-exist...
And the price of a gallon of non-ethanol that would probably be less than ethanol if the ethanol subsidies are adiosed and that might shutdown the ethanol industry.

Here in Iowa, capitol of ethanol plants, regular non-ethanol gas is available at just about all gas stations.

I’ll check it out. i never thought of that. i have a couple real close. thanks for that.

add a vent hole by punching a hole or using a fancy aftermarket vent kit.

Don’t need any such ‘kit’.

Empty the can. Wash it out & rinse it so no fumes remain.

Buy a WING SCREW. Drill a hole the size needed for the WING SCREW. Now you have your vent hole & a stopper.

State wide....Currently larger diesel trucks-— I will bet that pickups are next-—and soon.

Looks like MI has ethanol free gas all over the state. It’s worth the extra $1.50 a gal to use it in lawnmowers, small engines, boat motors, and chain saws.

Definitely much better for the small engines, but $1.50/gal more? That's pretty ridiculous.. Down here it's usually less than premium, right around $.40/gal more than regular 87 grade.

If you read through the comments, you'll notice that I gave everyone a map of every pure gas location in the US/Canada, all the way back in post #49.
