Mark & fellow subscribers:

Good suggestion!  And for those who don't live near a marine dealer, you
might check your regular auto parts outlet.  Although a regional chain,
for those of you near a Western Auto, they carry such a device also,
which I recently purchased.  Works great, and will screw onto the top of
any square-sided quart plastic bottle, or the typical hypoid oil bottles
such as Castrol, Valvoline, etc.
