That reminds me of the time I ran out of gas, and all that I could come
up with was a clean antifreeze jug.
I filled it with fuel, but I had no way of pouring it in....

I stuck 6 or 8 Burger King straws into the filler neck to keep the flap
open. 
I then poured the gasoline over and into the straws, and the amazing
thing was that it actually sucked the fuel right in.
