CM,1. A new and improved small engine fluid dispensing container comprising, in combination: a container fabricated of plastic and formed as a hollow generally rectangular shaped box including a top wall, a bottom wall, a narrow front wall, a narrow back wall, and parallel wide side walls, with all of the corners and edges of the container being rounded, with the container including an inverted L-shaped recessed indentation at the intersection of the front wall and bottom wall, the vertical portion of the indentation including a centrally located circular hole near the bottom wall, the central portions of the large side walls of the container including generally rectangular shaped indentations to add strength to the apparatus, the top wall including a centrally positioned circular aperture near the intersection of the front and top walls, the aperture having a neck extending upwardly from its circumferencial edges, the neck being formed in a generally cylindrical configuration and including external screw threads near its upper extent; a circular ring and spout, the ring being positioned around the periphery of the hole in the container, the ring extending outwardly and including external screw threads, with the interior of the hole including a small centrally located aperture, with the interior of the hole having a slightly larger circumference than the circular opening in the ring, the spout being formed in a generally tubular configuration with an inner region, an outer region and a middle region therebetween, the inner and outer regions having openings at both ends, the inner region having a larger circumference than the other regions and adapted to be positioned in the interior of the hole, with the outer region angled upward and extending outside the hole, the middle region connecting the inner and outer regions and positioned within the opening in the ring, the open end of the inner region having a circular planar plate positioned within, the plate including a plurality of circular holes near its perimeter, the apparatus adapted to allow the free flow of fluid therethrough when pulled outward by the user, when pushed inward the inner portion of the plate is positioned flush against the small aperture in the hole thereby preventing the flow of fluid; a fill cap and an associated valve, the fill cap being formed in a generally cylindrical configuration with an open bottom including a plurality of internal screw threads, the top formed in a planar configuration with a centrally located hollow tube extending upward therefrom, with the top having a hole below the hollow interior of the tube, the cap being securely coupled to the neck when operating the dispenser, the valve including a tubular component with two open ends, the valve including a regulator component with a round planar end located within the tubular component, the regulator component having a generally triangular shaped handle with rounded ends located outside the tube, with a thin axle connecting the round planar end and handle therebetween, the valve adapted to regulate the flow of fluid therethrough upon turning of the handle by the user, the valve adapted to be positioned within the tube of the filler cap; a hose, the hose being formed in a hollow tubular configuration with two open ends, in one orientation an end of the hose being coupled with the free end of the valve assembly with the other end positionable in the tank of a small engine, in a second orientation, an end of the hose being coupled with the free end of the spout with the other end positionable in the tank of a small engine, in a third orientation the free ends of the hose being coupled to the valve assembly and spout respectively; and a handle, the handle having one end extending upwardly a short distance from the top wall of the container, with the other end formed contiguously with the rounded intersection of the top and back walls, the remainder of the handle being positioned in an angled orientation therebetween.
