Valve cover oil filler funnel.
« on: September 01, 2022, 06:39:43 PM »
It seams like every time I find something I like they stop making it.

About a year ago a mechanic showed me a Hiper Tough funnel #05071 bar code 817739011036. The plastic ting on the funnel causes a friction fit that holds the funnel tight in a Chevy valve cover. I have a 1975 Chevy truck with a 350 motor. The size of the funnel allows me to add oil with out having to removing the air cleaner.
I like the funnel so much I went to walmart to purchase another one but now they are no longer stocked. Maybe some walmarts still have these funnels on the shelf.

Does any one know where I might find another one of these funnels?

Never mind Lowes sells the same funnel listed as FloTool #05062.

Thanks for the tip Ron. I'm in need of a few new funnels as well.

 Thanks for the replies.

I was looking for another one of these funnels because it looks like it was made to fit my 75 Chevy truck.

If you look at the picture of the funnel there is a plastic ring molded into the tapered end of the funnel that holds it in place when pushed into the oil fill hole.

The funnel from Lowes is listed as Hopkins Super Quick Fill&#174 Funnel but the label on the funnel says FloTool Super QuockFill Funnel #05062M1.
