as the stihl no fills get older the fuel one starts jamming, also on a hot day if u forget to release the preasure befor filling it pees everywere exept ur fuel tank,,, but it has to be the stihl with the normal oil spout and a quick fill fuel spout for me

 

Yep release pressure even if nearly empty. I use a Stihl can as with most I didn't bother with the oil quick fill too slow in winter.:thumbup1:

Same, it just becomes natural to give the spout a squeeze before you fill, again I use the Stihl combi with the standard oil spout and the auto fill fuel nozzle, had mine 4 years and not a problem (the can isn't as see through as it once was mind).

 

The only nozzle I've had problems with it sticking open is the Husky, but then Sweden isn't Germany for engineering. :001_tongue:

I Have had the Husky and the stihl:

 

The husky I thought was Useless the shape of it made it very difficult to put fuel in in the first place, the petrol anti spill spout lasted about 3 weeks and unlike the stihl you cannot easily see how full the can is when putting fuel in.

 

The stihl can is great (although I do not have the special oil cap, is this any good?) has lasted a very long time, and our lads are not gentle with it. the petrol sprout works fantastically and I have had no problems with it! However extremely pricey for essentially a fuel can, does anyone know where to buy cheap ones?
