Because I hate to spill gas when filling my CS and it seemed I always did so with a conventional gas can and spout, I looked for a pump solution. I've purchased and used the following pumps. Each has its virtues and vices, both are inexpensive so you may want to take a fly. No warranty expressed or implied.
The Sierra Tools is a rather long pump and works on 2 - D cells, in the red upper portion. It has a momentary contact slide switch at the top. It sells for $10 on Amazon. I found it to have too high a flow rate for filling a CS. To keep it clean, I stored it in the paper tube in the photo, another hassle.
This Squeeze Bulb Pump is from Harbor Freight and sells for $5. It's 70" long and use two standard spiral hose clamps to attach the hose to the bulb. I took one side off and cut the other in half to shorten its length. The flow rate is perfect for a CS tank, about a dozen squeezes fills the tank. Did have one time it refused to pump, half-hour later it worked fine. Small and flexible enough to fit in the saw case.
