ABSTRACT:
An adapter for a fuel container. The fuel container has an outlet/inlet and an annular cap to be received on the outlet/inlet. The cap has shoulder around the upper surface to overlap the inlet/outlet and the adapter comprises of a flange to be trapped between the outlet/inlet and the cap. A pipe mounting on the adapter allows a pipe to extend from the adapter towards the bottom of the fuel container. There is a passageway through the adapter so that the adapter can be trapped between the outlet/inlet and the cap to allow access to the fuel in the container. By this means, a jerry can need not be moved around within, for example, a boat fitted with an outboard motor. At the appropriate time the fuel line to the main supply tank for the motor can be disconnected from that main fuel tank and quickly attached to the adapter thus avoiding the possibility of fuel leakage.
