Default Spout, metal, flexible

To pour the fuel from the metal jerry can, you need a spout, metal, flexible. Commonly known as a horse co(C)k. If you are looking at an assortment of jerry cans, watch out for internal rust, big dents, bulged bottoms and bad threads on the screw cap. I found a small country surplus store in Quebec with many jerry cans for sale. Eventually I found one which contained someone's old engine oil. No internal rust! The other ones were almost all quite decrepit. But, I suppose you could have yours steam cleaned and coated like a car gas tank.
