Gas and Diesel cans

Hello Everyone,
Has anyone figured out a way to get the fuel out of the Blitz can faster? It seems to take forever to empty a 5 gallon can. I was thinking of drilling a hole in the side opposite of the drain so it would drain faster but do not know what to use to plug the hole when not in use. The self-venting drain really is slow and I am trying to get the cans to drain faster. I have 11 gallon gas and diesel tanks on my machine but when I top them off at a job I would like it to go faster. Anyone have any ideas?
 
You can buy a manually vented 5 gal diesel can (yellow) at Tractor Supply. I had the same problem. The problem is when you are emptying the whole can at once to refill your tank, it stops numerous times due to the self venting. They told me that you cannot buy anything but a self venting gasoline can these days, so I bought another manually vented diesel can and marked it "GAS". It solved my problem. It costs me about $15 for both.
