This diesel can is exactly what I need for refilling the fuel tank on my 30 ft sailboat. I didn't want one of those fuel cans with the annoying "locking" nozzles - that are so difficult to use. This can should be perfect, because I can let the fuel can rest on the floor of the cockpit, then tilt it until the nozzle enters the fuel fill hole, and then press the button to start fueling. Here's the problem - the No Spill Nozzle doesn't stay attached to the fuel can. There's a design problem with the thread engagement between the black threaded ring on the nozzle (female threads) and the male thread on the can itself. When I tilted the can to insert the nozzle into my boat fuel fill hole, I bumped the nozzle and the nozzle fell off! Yes, the nozzle partially disconnected from the tank and diesel fuel began spilling out. So much for NO SPILL. This is a great idea - but it desperately needs redesign in order to be safe.
