A little funnel helper.
Original Message   Feb 11, 2005 2:02 pm
Recently purchased a small Mr. Funnel. I normally load gas by just pouring it directly into the OPE tank. But since I now use the funnel, one hand has to hold  the funnel and the other, the gas can (which can be heavy when full). Fuel just about overflowed the first time I used it as I could not really see the fuel level rising. A non-issue with plastic tanks as you can see the fuel level (the blower has a steel tank). I eventually ended up cutting off the upper part of a clear plastic soda bottle and using it as a funnel helper.   Now both hands hold the gas can and I can also see the fuel level.

Works great and you just can't beat the price too!

Here's one I made from a Poland Springs water bottle for the motorcycle:

Photo's not that great but it fits in perfectly into the hole. Can definitely see the fuel level on this.

Gotta love that Honda red.
