Ok guys. I usually take with me 15 gallons of E85 in THREE fuel jugs with me to the track since most tracks DO NOT have E85. As most of you know it normally is a real pain in the ass to put the fuel in the car even with fuel funnels.

To solve that issue, I made a 1/2 inch diameter PVC fuel pipe extension that I directly attach to my fuel jug's MALE threaded end using a 3/4 inch female to female connector so that I can insert about 12 inches of the PVC pipe DIRECTLY into the filler neck. I can then empty the fuel jug fairly quickly without spilling any fuel. PICS are below are what I used. The KEY piece that makes this work without leaking is the SHARKBITE piece. It LOCKS in the PVC pipe into the fitting securely.

The reason I DID NOT use all PVC material is I could find the correct sizes needed. Using this you can vent the jug and fill it at fill flow without stopping.
