#2) About 1 ounce of gasoline remains in the Funnel after the filtering process. The Funnel functions as advertized. But there are 2 problems. The filter screen should be closer to the bottom of the funnel. #1) In order to use it to purify gasoline going into a car/pickup truck, I had to add an extension of about 6 inches so that it would fit in the tank opening.
works fine - would like a flat side so that a person could get closer to side of vehicle being fueled.
I would make this investment. I had no idea that 1/10 of a gal. Jeez, I knew they were putting a lot of crap in gas. would be something other. Should prolong the life of your equipment. If I were running a generator, portable compressor, paramotor,scooter,snow machine, any high performance 2 stroke.
Works well for putting fuel in anything from gas cans or for dumping fuel from small gas tanks such as lawn equipment and motorcycles.You would be surprised at how many of these have water in them.
I can understand if you use it at a gas station and have no place to dump the sump, but if you use it often at home or work, and you are concerned because the cost of fuel has risen to obscene heights again, try this: pour the remains into a small fuel container dedicated for the leftovers. Many of these devices do not have dedicated fuel filters and it just takes a little bit of junk getting lodged in the carb to make them run like garbage.In my home garage I use three types of fuel: straight gas for the mower and snow blower, a oil gas mix for the 2-cycle motors, and Kerosene/diesel for a shop heater and I run all of them through this filter. For smaller 2-cycle motors this can be terrible becasue the oil, which is vital to the mixture, can not mix with the water and over time those little pockets of oil-less fuel can cook your engine.But even if you do not think that water is much of an issue for you, think about getting this funnel for just the peace of mind of having a good filter for your gas. The depth and straight high sides is nicer than the sloped sides of a regular funnel when pouring from a large can; you do not have the issue of it shooting out the other side from where you are pouring.I have read, here and other places, about concerns with the amont of fuel left in the 'sump' when you are finished. At the very least this is a nice deep funnel; the addded ability to remove junk from the fuel is certianly a plus.
You have invested in your power equipment; the weed wacker, snow blower, lawn mower, etc. It is a bit larger than I thought it would be, so I may pick up the smaller one as well. After it has built up enough pour THAT through the funnel.Some folks may not realize how much water may be in the gas they use. It just makes for one less thing I have to worry about. Now that alcohol is in so much of the gas at the pump you do not really see the water because it mixes with the alcohol; it acts just like dry gas.
