As for a "Redneck Solution", try this on for size:
Get yourself a cap for your gas can, drill one hole in the cap just barely large enough to pull some 1/4" fuel hose through, then drill another hole through the cap and mount a tire valve assembly. On the fuel line, add an inline shutoff valve about 6" to 10" from the output end. Using a tire pump, lightly pressurize your gas can, then open the nozzle and the light pressure will push gas through the fuel line and into your tank. If your can is higher than what you're filling, then once the pressure starts the gas flowing, pop the vent cap on your gas can and it will siphon, albeit through a 1/4" hose. If your gas can is below the tank you're filling, you can continue to pump air into your gas can to push the gas out.
PLEASE NOTE!!!!!: This is a Redneck Fix ONLY, as doing this may possibly allow for a buildup of static electricity, which would not serve any good.....other than bragging rights on the Redneck forums. I honestly don't know if there is much chance of static buildup, but figured I best add that part in there. I think as long as there is some way for the can to ground out, that any chance of static buildup would be eliminated. But this also makes me wonder about the siphon nozzle on Amazon - if you set your gas can up higher, would it still be able to shed any static charge safely?
