On my Tauro, there is no gas cap. That much I knew.
I filled up prior to a 400 mile Interstate trip and went to add a bottle of Seafoam. As good a time as any, right?
I could see the Seafoam top was not pushing the little filler gate open, but I figured the liquid would just squeeze in there if I poured slowly. Well, the puddle on the ground said otherwise.
It was then I learned of the two tiny little ears that must both be pushed in for the fill gate to be pushed open.
Now just try doing that and pushing the gate open at the same time. It can be done, but it really sucks.
Since then I have tried all my vast assortment of funnels. None of them are the correct diameter to do the job.
Anyone else ever notice this and perhaps developed a solution? Whatever it is, it needs to be the same size as a fuel pump nozzle.
thanks in advance.
