Product Information
Full details
The CarPlan Flexi Funnel is designed for automotive enthusiasts and DIYers needing a reliable tool for transferring various automotive fluids. Its key benefit is the extra-flexible neck, allowing for precise and mess-free pouring in tight spaces. A potential consideration is its 5L capacity, which might be larger than needed for very small top-ups.

FAQs
What is the capacity of the CarPlan Flexi Funnel?
The CarPlan Flexi Funnel has a capacity of 5 liters.
Can I use this funnel for non-automotive fluids?
While designed for automotive fluids, it can be used for other household liquids where a flexible funnel is needed, provided the material is compatible and thorough cleaning is performed afterwards.
How do I store the funnel?
Store the funnel in a clean, dry location. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mold or degradation. Avoid storing it in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
Is the flexible neck durable?
Yes, the extra flexible neck is designed for durability and repeated bending during use.
How should I clean the funnel after using it with engine oil?
After emptying, rinse the funnel thoroughly with warm water and a suitable degreaser. Ensure all oil residue is removed before rinsing with clean water and allowing it to dry completely.
Will this funnel fit into small oil filler caps?
The funnel's spout is designed to fit most standard automotive fill points. The flexibility of the neck allows it to be angled for better access, but check the dimensions if you have exceptionally small openings.
Troubleshooting
Funnel is not flexible enough
Ensure the funnel has been stored at room temperature. Extreme cold can temporarily reduce flexibility. Gently warm the funnel if necessary, but avoid excessive heat.
Fluid is not flowing smoothly
Check for any blockages within the funnel or at the point of transfer. Ensure the receiving container's opening is large enough for the funnel's spout.
Difficulty cleaning residue
For stubborn residues like oil, use a degreaser or a mild detergent with warm water. A soft brush may help dislodge dried-on material.
