On my Focus forum, we started a “things you might not know about your car” thread. It was awesome, and the perfect spot for posts just like this. I learned a lot. Sure we could come up with more good ones for this ride.
Gas Funnel
3
Most of you probably already know this, but just in case it's new to you as it was to me...
I came back from the race track with 10 gal of 91oct that I didn't want sitting around and going bad so I went to put it into the Shelby, only neither my hose nor funnel would get past the anti-siphon housing (which I knew nothing about). Then I got to thinking how do I get gas into the car if I run out of gas, so I looked into and found the car comes with a small funnel made just for this. In case you're stupid like me and didn't know, it's located in the truck next to the flat tire pump.
