Does this work? Blitz plastic gas can nozzle to fix "always spill gas down side"

[AbigailAmelia]

Hello,

Just like in the articles in the links below, I spill some gas when filling either side/tank on my 1977 GMC K25. I've had mixed luck with strong arming the nozzle against the truck (yes, in Southern California). I'd really, really like to not spill gas and waste money. We're moving to Oregon soon, where you can't pump your own gas, so this could get more expensive if the attendant isn't paying attention...

Has anyone tried this? "The trick is to use a funnel from the Blitz plastic gas cans. Just shove it in the filler neck the stick the nozzle in the funnel and wamo easy as one two three" (Article 2, Post #20).

Does this work? Or will it just make a bigger mess?

Thanks!

Michelle
