Can's okay, but the cap isn't : Briggs & Stratton 85053 5-Gallon Gas Can Auto Shut-Off (CARB Compliant)


Before buying this gas can, I did not really understand how the environmentally responsible (CARB Compliant) spout actually worked, but here is the layman's version. It is supposed to be a one-way valve. The way you empty the gas can when inverted is to engage the hook on the side of the spout on the edge of your gas tank (lawnmower tank, snowblower tank, whatever) and then depress down (i.e. actually push down on the entire can, pressing it towards the ground with the 85053 cradled in your hands). This compresses the spring-loaded spout and opens the one-way valve so the gas is allowed to empty out the spout and into your lawnmower (like depressing the nozzle on an aerosol can so something can come out). Sounds good, right?

Well, there are several problems. First of all, the tip of the spout has to extend fairly deeply into the tank of your lawnmower to enable you to engage the hook on the side of the spout to activate that whole spring-loaded compression process. You really can't see the gas emptying out the end because it is already buried in gasoline in your shallow lawnmower tank. Secondly, I found the whole process rather clumsy because the gas can handle is on top (perfect for carrying it away from the gas station) but you have to invert the tank virtually 180 degrees to position it to make this spring-loaded spout process work. It is just clumsy trying the hold the inverted can, especially if full and heavy, without the assistance of any handles since the handle is now underneath the can in that position.

But, worst of all, when I depress the spout on my can, the gas does not just come out the end of the spout like it is supposed to. It comes out everywhere. There is a flood of gasoline that spews out from who knows where, through seals that are supposed to keep the gas from leaking out presumably. I tried everything I could to fix it. It was not an issue of the spout being improperly tightened down into the can. The gas just gushed out through the side of the spout everytime the spring-loaded mechanism was depressed. That is why my Briggs & Stratton 85053 is worthless. I mean that literally. It is unusable. You just end up with a mess on the ground as maybe two-thirds of the gasoline makes it into the tank, and the rest of it is on your lawnmower deck, your shoes, and ground.

I now see as I post this review that I am not the only one who has had this problem. For some people, it evidently works fine. For me, I may has well have just burned a $20 bill. It was wasted money. My efforts at better environmental responsibility have ended up with one more piece of plastic in a landfill somewhere because there was nothing else I could do with this can. It was simply unusable. I bought this particular gas can primarily because it had the Briggs & Stratton name on it, which has been a name that I have associated with quality for over 40 years (ever since I was old enough to know about small gasoline engines). I rather doubt that this spout was actually designed by Briggs & Stratton engineers. I wonder whether you can really design and build a spout mechanism into a $20 piece of equipment without having a high failure rate. I don't know. It obviously doesn't fail for everybody, but it failed on my can.
