Trouble with Tesco's.

OK...
Might have to buy another Jerry, but that still means having to fill that first which seems a bit daft.

Not if you want to avoid pouring vegoil down the side of the Surf it ain't.

OK...

PB, yes, tried a funnel, but because of the angle of the filler cap, I found it a PITA.

Matt, I do have a Jerry can and spout, but it's full of diesel at the moment, and I want to keep that there. Might have to buy another Jerry, but that still means having to fill that first which seems a bit daft.

Dave, I've been looking round for something like that, where from and how much?

Paul,
check on ebay, i bought one for about £6. Use with a cordless drill. I`ve also seen all other types of syphon pumps.

Well, the body work around the filler cap is now very clean and non stick, so no mud there.

I use a large oil funnel with a flexible nozzle, hung from the roof bars to keep the funnel at the right angle. Trying to find a square one which will sit better against the side of the truck...

I have to say, the plastic bottle in a cardboard box packaging doesn't pour that well

Nope. At the moment I'm using a lid from one of the bottles that I have modified with a pipe connector and a length of pipe, and I use a knife to make a breather hole in the bottom once the bottle is inverted. Works OK, but it's slow, and not easy to stop quickly when I brim the tank - hence the spills.

Have been buying 30l at a time from Notley Tescos near Braintree, no problem.
But have now been to Makro now, cheaper @ 49p litre.

looks like it's gone up there as well called at Makro in Sheffield Wednesday night cheapest they had was £10.98 for 20L so 55p a Litre.

They have it in 10 litre plastic containers at our local tesco, works out at 53p a litre
