siphoning device!

[exzhoray]

Hello guys!. i would just like to ask if any of you guys know a siphoning device so that i can transfer some of the fuel from brother's car to my car. I've tried several methods trying to get some gas from my kuya's car bat all of it have failed. ive tried using a garden hose, a small diameter plasitc hose.. but ayaw pa rin..

wala po bang nabibiling pangsipsip na ganito. tnx..

Hose lang yan. Well, for me at least, that's all I've ever needed.

Baka naman kailangan mo lang ng practice. Try it with buckets of water first. Set the source bucket at a position that's higher than the destination, place the hose in, tapos sipsipin mo. When you feel the water gushing in, tutok mo na dun sa mababang bucket. If you get it right, you should get a steady stream.

Ingat lang, you might end up with a mouthful of gasoline. Kadiri lasa nya. I should know.

Pero mas kadiri brake fluid.

Why would you want to take your brother's fuel?

[StraightSix]

Ganito ba?
Ingat lang at baka tsikoteer din ang kuya mo

Sir StrsightSix:

natry ko na po yan pero parang hindi pumapasok totally dun sa tanke ng corolla ng brother ko eh. masyado malalim ata

Horsepower:

my brother's well aware from what's happening he get's free gas from the nature of his job and siya na mismo nag alok kung gusto ko kumuha kaso my plan still won't materialize

Yoda:

Sir ive tried din that before.. kaso masyadong matapang amoy nang gasoline.. tsaka parang vapor lang nahihigop ko.. triny ko n rin ung small hoses used in the hospital kaso.. natutunaw naman...

yoda's right. garden hose lang katapat nyan.

have you tried siphoning into a bucket? baka naman kasi you directed the hose directly to your car's filler hole.

it would also be better if you have some extra gasoline handy. just fill up the length of the hose with gasoline, cover one end with your thumb so that the fuel won't spill out and feed the hose to the donor car. place the other end into a bucket -- bubuhos na yan.

kung talagang forever ka bibigyan ng utol mo ng gas, painstallan mo na lang gripo yung fuel tank drain plug nya!

haha oo nga sir. pwede ka ya to? i wish i knew a shop that installs one. cge po try ko advice nyo.. kaso po the garden hose is too big..

[viper2lt]

nababasa ba yung end ng hose pag nilagay mo sa fuel filler ng tsikot ng kuya mo? kung hindi nababasa, may strainer yun kaya hindi papasok ang hose. kung nababasa naman, kailangan mo ng siphon na nabibili sa do it yourself. meron sya bola sa dulo. ilulubog mo lang sa source tapos shake ka lang hanggang mag flow na gas. kung may strainer nga ang source, drain plug at malaking basin ang kailangan mo. hth

[bratski]

hindi ba kaya na enroll nalang yung car mo mismo as his backup car/coding car? para at least you wont have to go through the hassle of siphoning the fuel. deretso na agad sa car mo. You could also talk to the station attendant na dun kayo lagi magpapa gas and in return 2 car ang kakargahan niya. If all else fails, ask your friendly neighborhood casa technician.. expert sila dyan sa pag siphon ng fuel sa mga cars na nagpapa service.

Most newer cars have safeguards against siphoning because of the rampant theft of gasoline during the fuel crisis of the 70's (especially in the U.S.). Some Ford vehicles don't even have locking gas caps (local Ford just gives them away for free unlike in the U.S. where you have to buy the cap) but they still have the anti-siphoning safeguards.

Doesn't you brother's car have a drain plug for the gas tank? Why not try draining from there. Yun nga lang, you'll also get all the dirt that's settled at the bottom of the tank.

At least lilinis yung tank ni brother. But before putting the gas into your car, i-filter mo muna.

nakow! patay tayo dyan..

Most new cars nowadayas have a strainer kaya hindi uubra yung hose or yung nasa post ni StraightSix. I bought the latter, and naka-siphon ako ng konti, kasi nung nagpa-full tank ako, pinasagad ko. Pero I pumped (by hand)for about 15-20 minutes bago ako nakakuha ng mga 500 ml.

After that wala na akong makuha, at mukhang naharang na ng strainer. Laking pagod at perwisyo for about 20petot (present cost of 500ml premium gasoline).

Used siphoning hose, anyone?

[StraightSix]

Actually, yung nasa picture pang-siphon sa drum. Kung may strainer, di pala pwede kahit hose ang gamitin. Ang hirap nga naman makakuha ng libreng gasolina. Naalala ko tuloy yung nasa Friendster ... makikipag-:***:, makakuha lang ng load sa cellphone, hehe (not that I'm implying exzhoray's willing to do the same thing)

[sequoia]

meron sa supermarket, yung may red colored plastic sa dulo na pipigain mo para ma suck ang fluid. Gamit ko pag sumobra ang AT fluid.

[danesjr]

garden hose and a lot of practice. kahit yung puti na hose. ilagay mo muna sa container kesa diretso sa gas tank mo para mas mababa yung exit sa hose kesa sa entry. makes sense?
