ameri-can container replacement cap
Replacement cap for Ameri-Can gas/diesel/kerosene/water containters (CARB/EPA type). I have 5 gallon cans. May work with other sizes.
I keep losing these caps, so I printed some. Keep in mind you must use a plastic that will not be disolved by the fluid in the container. For example, ABS is okay for diesel but not for gasoline.
