At the end of the season I take the tanks off the boat and pour the petrol into the car, usually getting petrol all over the place in the process as the tanks are not made for pouring from. Can anyone point me towards a plastic nozzle that will screw securly onto the top of my fuel tanks? (22L and 30L)

Thanks.
 
Difficult to sugest a nozzle to fit your tanks without knowing your tanks

A siphon incorporating an outboard engine type primer bulb to start it flowing (or a "Jiggle siphon" as suggested above) would be my choice.

If these are outboard engine tanks then maybe all you need to do is remove the hose end connectors and use the fitted hoses and bulbs.

buy a 2 m lengh=th of pipe and a clip.put it in the liquid and jiggle rapidly until air is out of bend.can has to be higher than tank emptiying into but a 22 litre tank will take about 3 mins and no mess.alternativly stabilzer treatment in the can and leave to next year.i do to my 40 gallon tank with no problems whatsoever.
