Yea, you gotta stuff a rag in each end.  I'll usually try to prop it up somehow, if a can to let it drip back into the Jerry can for a while if at all possible.  I actually left the hose from my oil extractor propped up from last weekend to let the oil drain out of it all week before I store it again.

Scepter Military Fuel 20l plastic, two on ebay for sale now  $100.00.

I have been using them for 10 years, never leak and no-spill if you use their fill spout.

Very  pricey but the last can you will have to buy.

Subject: Stus-List Filling diesel tank

I will soon be topping off my diesel tank for the winter, which I usually do by pouring fuel through a funnel with a water filter from a 5 gal jerry can.  I have found it nearly impossible to pour into the funnel from a full 5 gal container and hit the funnel without spilling diesel all over the transom and into the water if still at the dock.  Has anyone found a device that works or come up with a clever way to transfer fuel without spilling?  Thanks- Dave
