Abstract:
A portable device for withdrawing fuel from a vehicle having a fuel tank, an engine, and a fuel line connecting the tank and the engine and having a fuel pump coupled to said fuel line to normally pump fuel from said tank through said line to said engine comprising:a Schrader valve having an inlet and an outlet adapted to be coupled to said fuel line with the inlet in communication therewith, said Schrader valve being normally closed;a T joint having an inlet and an outlet, said inlet being adapted to be disposed in said fuel line downstream of said fuel pump and said outlet being adapted to be disposed in said fuel line downstream of said inlet so that fuel from said tank pumped by said fuel pump normally passes through said T-valve joint, said joint mounting said Schrader valve;a conduit adapted to be coupled at one end to the outlet of said Schrader valve;a coupling mounted on said conduit at said one end normally engaging said Schrader valve, said coupling mounting an internal post so that when said coupling engages said Schrader valve said post opens said valve and the outlet therein whereby said valve places said fuel line in communication with said conduit; anda fuel dispensing nozzle mounted at the opposite end of said conduit.
