Mine was like that too. I pushed something non marking up against the ball til the spring compressed and went slack. It works a treat now.
It only took a few seconds and it doesn't matter if the spring goes totally slack.

I've got the large bore & small bore jiggler & can't get either of em to work so I'll stick with the kerny cans with the fast flow nozzle they empty in about 2 mins

Yup, the nozzle is very flexible & about 18" long. Screw it onto the Kerny Kan, stuff the hose down the tank filler & up-end the kan & rest it on the tubes. No spillage, no buggering about with pumps, job done

I agree with Jambo - go for the wide bore unit - the smaller one is a balls.

Hi Brian I use one all the time. Best I can say is not to get it to short measure what you require remember the depth from your filler cap to the tank plus get a big bore as it goes in quicker I've got 3/4" with 2 metres length.
Hope that helps.
Cheers
