That is one swell tip. I've been driving -- if "driving" is the appropriate word -- this little feller for a few years now and been on the list at least as long yet did not until this moment realized that only one funnel was needed back there.

New Vanagon Folk - the oil filler tube has a telescoping inner extension to ease the filling with oil and avoiding oil spillage. Just remove the cap, feel around the end of the tube, insert thumb insid the tube, and fingertips at the rim of the tube, and pull. The extension should just slide right out into position, allowing spill free oiling. When done oiling, just push it back in. Good luck and many happy, trouble free miles with your new machines.
