This might be a good idea, if I understand you correctly.

I buy a oil-changing can with a pour spout, and then I fill the abominable
CARB gas can with gas.

When I need to pour out the five gallons, I remove the abominable CARB
spout, and just pour the 5 gallons of gasoline into the clean oil-changing
tub.

Then, I can pour from the oil-changing tub into the on-road vehicle or
wherever I need it at that moment without having to deal with the
abominable CARB spout.

Is that what you were suggesting? ('cuz it's a great idea!).
