What funnel do you use to fill the DEF tank?

Yes .. PM-27-N is the PN on mine.
The hose you get with that item is a generic fill hose and does not limit the amount of DEF you pour in. The Ford hose includes an internal vent tube which allows faster filling AND stops the filling at the proper level. Over-filling your DEF tank has consequences.

This thread reminded me that I need to go visit a local Tractor Supply and buy a few of THESE as shown in the video below.

EDIT TO ADD: Just got back from Tractor supply with my new EZ-Pour spouts.

I use the large filler versions on all but on can (figure i can switch it if i want). Small filler version.
theyre still not as good as a , but they work better then the EPA nozzles which are PURE crap!

I got the standard(?) white version because that's all they had in the store today. They did have another white version with a filler tube extension (add-on filler tube which screws onto the first tube ... too long to suit my needs). These spouts allowed me to salvage a couple plastic 5-gallon fuel cans because I was on the verge of tossing them due to the troublesome EPA spouts.

Another option is you can have a DEF tank delivered to your house. they come in different sizes from a 50 gal drum to a huge trailer w/ tank in it, they come self contained with a hose,pump and gal. counter. all you do is call a delivery man to come fill it back up when empty.

I can tell you the DEF nozzle at Buc-ees DEF pump did NOT kick off when the Def Tank was full (I spilled some as a result).
The stuff looks like water when it gets on the paint (or any other surface)...but it hardens and STICKS (but still looks like a water droplet)....I figured it would blow off when I went down the road....It did not & was still on the paint when I got home 100 miles later.
I know its not good to get DEF on anything - but I did not suffer any ill effect (including paint damage or staining)....I still don't recommend ignoring it (and as they say...I WONT do that Again!)
