mikester Posted May 19, 2010 Author Share Posted May 19, 2010 lol i'm sure any funney with a nozzle of this diameter would go in though? never really thought about how easy it could potentially be to steal fuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

titanium_s_spec Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 you only need a plastic pipe and a smaller diameter rubber pipe to syphon the fuel from a mk7 or any other car with these anti syphon thingies on.. but also don't loose that plastic thing because they are £30 in my local dealer apparently..

tone Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 I use my little exhaust tip to mix 2 stroke oil with my diesel. But unfortunately I left the original one on top of the pump at a motorway service station. But I was saved by my local Ford Dealer who got me 2. Priced at £5.05 each inc VAT. I've checked that once the plastic funnel is in place I cannot get a plastic pipe in to syphon fuel out. Ford must have installed an anti-syphon device inside the filler pipe.
