A container dispensing device is provided having a storage mode and a dispensing mode wherein a pouring spout comprising a threaded first end, an angled configured second end, having an exterior engaging mechanism, positioned and functioning at all times inside both a draw sleeve having an interior engaging mechanism, and a first cap opening. Said draw sleeve is positioned directly above an exterior threaded upper extension of said first cap, which remains attached at all times to said container by a first engaging mechanism. The exterior of said draw sleeve, housed inside a second cap, is kept dry in said storage mode, on an upper side by a seal positioned therein, and on a lower side by a multi-functional seal secured to a top edge of said upper extension of said first cap.; Conversion of said dispensing device from said storage mode to said dispensing mode, requires handling only a dry exterior surface of said second cap and said draw sleeve. Said spout is placed at a desired angled position within said container and withdraw to a point of contact between its said exterior engaging mechanism and said interior engaging mechanism of said draw sleeve, clockwise rotation of which, draws an outer end flange of a second end, to a respective surface under said first cap in a sealed fashion. Said spout is thereby converted from said storage mote to said dispensing mode utilizing said draw sleeve, having said interior engaging mechanism. A holding mechanism with a protruding center pin, positioned inside said second cap, is rotated counter-clockwise causing disengagement from said spout, opening a first end.; Counter rotation of said holding mechanism onto a closed exterior threaded air vent, causes said protruding center pin to open an air valve disposed therein, or optionally operated manually, providing passage of air to said container facilitating egress of materials disposed therein, and closed upon counter rotation and removal. Returning said holding mechanism to said first end of said spout places said container dispensing device in said dispensing mode where, utilizing said seals provided, it may function repeatedly in a substantially safe fashion, or be returned to said storage mode by reversing procedures described above.; A variation of the present invention provides an upper extension of a first cap with exterior engaging mechanism, for insertion into, or otherwise attached to, existing or manufactured fuel container caps, to function as a conversion kit, accommodating the functioning components of the present invention. A second variation provides a conversion kit comprising an interior threaded air vent extension, housing an air valve, which rotates onto existing or manufactured exterior threaded container air vents, located and designed to be operated by a centrally positioned protruding center pin of a second cap rotated holding mechanism.
