Magic Siphon Hose

Magic Siphon – Sipped any High Octane lately? Any Petrol? Any Regular Unleaded? If you have ever had to empty your VWs tank before working on it or just borrowed a few ounces for the lawn mower, you are very familiar with the lingering taste of your favorite fossil fuel.

However, this summer I stumbled across an excellent product while browsing in a truck stop in Mt. Vernon, MO. The Magic Siphon is an excellent tool to have around the garage or in the VW.

This siphon hose is made of large diameter, clear plastic tubing and incorporates a copper one-way ball valve in the bottom end. It is simple to use (see instructions at left).

The up and down action causes the fuel to move the ball valve up to let fuel in during the down movement. But it cannot pass back through because the ball moves back down and closes the passage as the hose moves up.

An added benefit is that if the suction end of the hose comes out of the fuel, just start the process again to get the last bit of it. No more “gas lips!” I highly recommend this simple and reliable product. It is sort of like our VWs! –Bill C.-
