CA 2239430

A device for preventing spillage of fuel during fueling of a boat or similar vessel includes a reservoir within the fuel system for collecting any overflowing fuel and returning such fuel to the boat's fuel tank. The reservoir is located intermediate the fuel tank vent tube through which the excess fuel is expelled. The reservoir collects the fuel while allowing air displaced in the fuel tank to escape. In a first embodiment, the reservoir surrounds the boat's fuel filler tube and the tube is perforated to allow fuel in the reservoir to enter. In a further embodiment, the reservoir is separated from the filler tube but is connected to the fuel line entering the fuel tank.
