How do I put gas in my Ford Fiesta using a jerry can? Every time I try to, the gas leaks and spills from the sides.

Your gas might be leaking because of your vehicle’s capless fueling system, which keeps gas safely in your car without using a lid.
So, if you’re going to use a jerry can to fill your
Ford Fiesta
, you’ll need to use the fuel funnel included with the vehicle.
In a Ford Fiesta, you can find the fuel funnel under the luggage compartment floor covering.
Once you’ve located it, attach it to your jerry can and then proceed to fill up your tank!
Carrying a jerry can is a great way to protect yourself from
running out of gas
. But subscribing to roadside assistance is an even better way to protect you and your car.
With a roadside assistance membership from
Jerry
, you’ll never have to worry about being stranded again. Jerry’s roadside assistance includes jump starts, lockout service, key replacement, and towing.
