I have the old style mounted on my front rack with rack extension. I made a gaurd an d pop rivited it to the extension to protect the vent from being hit by limbs. You can mod the brackets a littl to mount right to the front lid and your pak will fit right in. It is snug but it works.
It sure is nice of uncle sam to protect us idiots by requiring ventless gas cans, even though they leak and pose an even bigger threat to us.
I have heard of people buying Briggs and Stratton ventless cans and useing that filler tube. But at the price these things cost they need to take care of the problem. Who wants to pay $70-$85 for a gas can that you need to go out and get another can to make it right?
You could always by two Jr packs and mount them one on top of the other also.

 

(HERE IS THE REAL DEAL)
The original Kolpin 3.5 is awsome no leaking problems at all. The Government stuck their nose into the design and did not like how the vent hung outside of the can and Kolpin had to redesign to the new design that (DOES) leak!

(OK) The Solution
If you have bought the new design Kolpin can, replace the top from a Briggs & Stratton 1.5 gallon can spout & cover problem solved.

Call Kolpin direct and they will replace the top for free for you with a new carb approved top that will not leak I was told.

I ended-up buying three new old style cans directly from Kolpin at $50 each. I asked for a deal. They have the brass vent wing nut that is on the outside of the can, we have used them for a couple of months now and they are perfect no problems. They are still for sale actually a little more money than the new replacement models? Look-up Kolpin and call them direct they are good People to deal with.
