RotopaX Self-Venting Spout Kit: RX-SP-Vent Review

This is much easier to use than the spout that comes with the Rotopax fuel tank. One problem is the cheap washing machine. It lasted one use and ripped so I had to buy a pack of pucks. Another problem with using it with a fuel tank is that fuel can splatter when the Rotopax is bled. This has more to do with the lack of venting in the tank, and it looks like the vent tube acts almost like a siphon when depressurizing (venting) the Rotopax. To prevent this, I remove the spout when not in use…

The perfect replacement for those pesky federal law spouts! I've struggled with several pesky federal mandate expiries for years and haven't found one that works really well.

Let me tell you, those spring-loaded shits got more gas on the car, on me, and on the ground than they put in the tank. I ended up making a funnel out of cardboard and just poured gasoline into it. It worked better than a…

I noticed it on the track because everything on my car was leaking. So buy a better gasket set. The nose itself works great. It pours easily with little to no mess, much better than the poorly designed that comes with Rotopax tanks. Why don't they come out of the gate with the right one? Naive question, I know. Just disappointed I paid a premium for all the…
