ABSTRACT:
Apparatus transfers fuel from the pressurized fuel line of a fuel-using motor vehicle to another vehicle or fuel container through a flexible hose. A T connector or Y connector is installed in the fuel line. The branch is supplied with a shut off valve and a double end shut-off quick connect coupling to a flexible hose with a valved nozzle at its end. When the hose is detached for storage, the coupling upon opening automatically seals both free ends to prevent leakage in the engine compartment while the shut off valve provides extra security. A unique venting system for the detached hose is also provided.
