Laser funnels reduce oil waste

Laser Tools has introduced two new oil funnel sets to cut waste and mess in the filling process. 


Changing engine oil can be a messy job and is not helped by the fact that different engines have different oil neck configurations. This means traditional funnels need one hand to keep them steady, and if the filler neck has a baffle, the oil has to be poured in very slowly and carefully, or else the oil will overflow and spill. 

The two new oil funnel sets from Laser solve these problems, with part number 8301 comprising a two-piece funnel supplied with three adaptor caps sized to fit various vehicles from the Volkswagen Audi Group, and part number 8302 is the same two-piece funnel but supplied with two adaptor caps sized to fit various vehicles from Renault and Nissan.

The assembled funnel is connected directly to the oil filler neck using the correct adaptor for the vehicle. This forms a tight seal, eliminating oil spillage. The adaptor provides a secure mount for the funnel assembly, so there is no need to hold the funnel steady. If the neck is baffled, the oil will flow in steadily with no leakage. The full diameter of the oil filler neck is used for quick filling and the transparent chamber shows when the bottle is empty. This provides a fast and effective way to re-fill or top-up vehicle engine oil with no mess and no spills.

For the 8301 set, applications include Audi, Seat, Skoda and VW models; for the 8302 set, applications include Nissan and Renault models using 1.5, 1.6 and 1.9L dCi engines and Renault Clio and Modus 1.5L dCi with the dipstick in the oil filler cap (OEM cap number 8200355344).

These are available now from your Laser Tools stockist.
