Bad boy - how to get gas can sleeve out of bad boy Rogue gas tank

[droth335]

I was filling the the tank with one of those !#%#$ new gas cans that have the spring loaded plastic sleeve to release gas and when I removed the gas can the spout fell apart and the plastic sleeve and spring fell into the tank and out of sight. Any ideas on how to remove?

The spring may be metallic so you may be able to get it with an extendable magnet. The rest may require some fishing, either with some long pliers to reach down inside the tank or a wire with an hook on the end to grab the other parts. Will either need to drain the tank or run it close to dry to see what you are looking for.
