AF1CB Fuel Filter

I immediately put this funnel to use when I received it, and I couldn't be happier with the results! Here are a few recent uses for this incredible funnel: 1.) My trimmer does not see a lot of use, and often sits for weeks at a time. When I do fire it up, it always runs poorly and needs a bit of choke all the time it's running. This funnel allows me to pour the unused fuel tank out into a small gas can, and store the trimmer empty. When I'm ready to use the trimmer, I pour the fuel into the trimmer using the Mr. Funnel, and now every time I fire it up it's good clean gas! Now my trimmer runs like a beast, with the choke full off. I do the same for my leaf blower now, as well. 2.) My lawn tractor was also running poorly. The difference here was not so much the fuel left in the tractor, as it sees frequent use. It must have been the fuel sitting in the gas can for weeks at a time, building up moisture. I filled the tank using the Mr. Funnel and the same gas I'd been using, and the tractor runs much better now. It starts faster and does not sputter during warm-up. 3.) In my portable generator I had over 5 gallons of fuel treated with STA-BIL. Several months passed, and I couldn't stand the thought of all that fuel sitting in there unused. I drained the fuel into a gas can and put it in my car. BAD IDEA, without a Mr. Funnel!!! I went to start the car the next day, and it wouldn't start. Immediately I knew it was water in the fuel. The filter media for the in-tank fuel pump swells when introduced to water, so I didn't harm my car (thank goodness). I removed the in-tank fuel pump to let it dry out, and drained out all the fuel. I poured it right back in using the Mr. Funnel, and the car started right up and has been running great ever since. Thanks Mr. Funnel!

March 28, 2018 I had stored some ethanol laced fuel about 6 months and in that time I had bought a new car and was leery about putting the stored gaso in it. I feared there'll be water and metal sediment from the tanks. So I bought a Mr. Funnel...funnel to run the gaso through. Definitely filtered out some visible particles. Important note: Be aware of the gallon per minute flow of the funnel you purchase. I was using 5 gallon tanks to pass fuel to my car. At times the funnel was overwhelmed. I had initially thought it had clogged, but fuel eventually drained though. A bit of back breaking work as holding a full 5 gallon metal gas can in precise inverted orientation to the funnel used alot of fine motor control for about 4 minutes to empty the gas can. And also a bit of leftover gasoline at the bottom of the water trap that can't pass though the filter. It's a good 2-3 ounces . Update: 4-22-18 Filled the funnel to the top of the hydrophobic filter mesh and waited for water to come out the other end. I avoided spraying the mesh directly. No trickle of water came out, BUT I took off the extension and found some water droplets in there. The filter held back a majority of the water so that's good. Nothing a little STA-BIL couldn't take care off. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS FILTER FUNNEL COMBO(and STA-BIL😒). This was a stress test and pure water was added to the funnel to see if it was readily water permeable, 98% effective. In real life you wouldn't encounter such a thing..., unless someone is out to get you.

This is a nice filter for adding gasoline to your equipment. However, it is not GREAT. The bottom of the filter is location approx. 1" above the bottom of the funnel. So the last inch of gasoline your into your Mr. Funnel does not get filtered. You MUST pour this volume of gasoline (approx. 1/2 cup) back into your gas can. This is not really easy to do because of the lack of directional pouring spout. So you need another funnel to pour the remaining gasoline out of Mr. Funnel or you end up with a mess of gasoline all over your gas can, equipment and maybe yourself. Not the kind of mess I like to have around my house or my shed. The filter DOES work to filter the water and debris out of your gasoline. Your equipment does receive clean water-less gasoline. This is nice and reduces maintenance problems down the road. I just wish the manufacturer's design engineers would have actually used the device and created a safe way to dispose of the unfiltered gasoline that is left in the funnel.

Seemed to work. Gas has a smaller molecule and water bigger.
