The Original Safety Siphon6 Foot Hose For Gasoline And More - 1/2" Valve Siphon Pump (2 pack) - Use for Cars, Boats, Mowers - Self Priming Pump Transfers 3.5 Gallons per Minute - FDA Food Grade

I discovered this product while watching a YouTube video by a fellow who "softroads" in a Subaru Forester. The idea behind this product was simply genius. You can imagine a scenario where you run out of gas, a Good Samaritan comes along to help and has gas in a can, but you have no way to easily get the gas from the can into your gas tank. Enter the Safety Siphon. It's so easy to use - and - requires no sucking on a rubber hose to get the siphon process working. Simply put the "donor" container slightly higher that the filler tank opening on the receiving end, insert the valve end of the Safety Siphon in the "donor" container and the opposite end in the "receiving" container, and jiggle the valve end up and down several times. You can watch the fluid enter the clear plastic tubing and literally watch it work it's way into the receiving container. Once the siphon starts working it will work until you want the process to stop. Easy Peasy! The Safety Siphon is now part of my vehicle's emergency kit - just in case. How can you not want to do the same? IMHO, this is a 5 Star product.

I have been trying to use the new, lousy, George Bush gas cans, that Bush signed into law! Those gas cans are terrible, because they removed the small vent, that used to be on the back of the older, much better gas cans! These new gas cans, cause so much gas to be spilled onto the ground! But with this Gasoline Siphon, all I do is place the brass ( or copper end, I'm not sure what it is made of ) into the gas can, and the other clear end of the hose, into the gas tank which I want to fill. I then simply move the brass end up and down a couple of times, and the gas starts to flow very fast into the tank! It fills very fast, and without having to hold a heavy, 5 gallon gas can, up in the air for at least 5 times longer than it takes for this siphon to fill the tank! I also did not spill a drop with this Gasoline Siphon, whereas with the Bush gas can, there was always much gas spillage, all over the ground, and even much of it spilled onto my hands as well! This is a truly super excellent Gasoline Siphon!

Wow, great siphon. Easy to use. Perfect for many uses, The side of the road, the lawn mower or the race track. Fits in your cars standard gas tank fill hole. and you get 2 of them. I put 1 in my wifes truck and the other in mine. New gas cans are heavy and leak like crazy. these siphons fix that problem. just make sure the gas can is higher than your cars gas tank fill hole. Place the hose in your cars gas tank fill hole and the brass end of the siphon in the gas can then just quickly stroke the brass end up and down and watch for the gas running through the hose then stop stroking and wait for the supply gas can to empty or remove the brass fitting side of the hose from the supply gas can when your done to stop the flow.

Great product

Simple operation, just keep shaking the valve in your source liquid until all air bubbles exit the other end. After that, you can leave it still and it will continue to drain your source until the valve meets the air again.The packaging of these siphons is relevant to their function: Everywhere I've seen shaker siphons like these locally, they are coiled very tightly and bound by a zip tie or wire tie, which creates folds and indentations in the tubes that will reduce their flow rate. Fortunately these siphons arrived loosely coiled in a huge plastic bag, and no ties wrapped around, leaving the tubes comfortably non-squished and fully open for maximum flow.

I have gas and water cans I carry on the back of my Jeep. These Siphons save me so much time and effort. I don't even remove them from the Jeep anymore. I can siphon directly into the Jeep's gas tank, into my portable generator, or into a smaller tank for the lawn mower. So convenient and easy to use. The only suggestion I would make is to make a different color one for gas and water. I've marked mine with a sharpie.

Only one hose of 2 was delivered

Glad we bought these. Far easier and cleaner than the traditional way!
