Hello.

I bought one of these eBay Jerry Cans.  

ebay fuel can

The spout that came with it was trash and it never sealed tight and yes, there were gaskets. So after spilling much fuel, I threw the spout away and just used a regular funnel.

Is there a better aftermarket spout that will properly latch on or is the can just Chinese trash and I should buy a Waivian (or similar).

Thanks.

I found the wavian spout didn't fit properly on my GELG jerry can that came with a shitty spout of that style (it also leaked).

Ordered one of these https://safetysiphon.net

I’ve had good luck with the cans and spouts from jerrycan.com

Edit: I always buy their blemished cans

Get the flexible metal spout, good Jerry cans, and a couple of gaskets. I put two gaskets in mine. Attachment Attached File

The spout they sent me leaked horribly - they said they would send a replacement - still waiting.

Wavian cans are better and have good spouts.

Those are NATO can copies. Poorly done ones at that. Throw it away and get a proper can. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I wouldn’t trust that can to hold water much less flammable gasoline.
