Carlyle Funnel Flexi Spout Mid Size (CFFS160)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CFFS160

Carlyle's mid size funnel has a carry handle, a removable brass filter in the neck and a two-section flexible spout that bends to reach awkward filler necks. The polyethylene body stands up to oil, fuel and some acids, so it covers engine oil top-ups, filling a mower from a can and gearbox jobs.

Good to know

• What is the filter for? The brass mesh catches grit, rust flakes and old seal bits before they reach the tank or engine; lift it out to clean it, or to let thicker oils run through faster.
• Why is the spout in two parts? You can take one section off for a shorter, stiffer spout on easy filler necks, or keep both on to bend round hoses and reach a gearbox or a filler set deep in the bay.
• Can I use one funnel for everything? Better not: keep one for fuel and another for oil, and a separate clean one for coolant or brake fluid, since traces of one fluid can spoil another.
• Anything it shouldn't touch? It resists only some acids, so for strong solvents such as thinners or acetone use a container made for them, and wipe it out after fuel so the vapour doesn't linger in the garage.

Which one?

For a nest of sizes, the Carlyle Funnel Set Fixed Spout – 4 Piece (CFSFS4); for measuring and pouring oil in one go, the Carlyle Oil Container Flexi-Spout – 5L (COCFS5L).
