The present invention provides an improved fuel hose device for insertion into a vehicle's fuel inlet pipe to deposit fuel therein. The device deposits the fuel into the pipe and avoids problematic back splashing even if the device is angled toward an inner surface of the inlet pipe when inserted therein. In one embodiment, the device comprises a hose and a nozzle. The nozzle has an input end that defines an input opening that is connected to the fuel hose for receiving fuel therefrom. The nozzle also has an output end defining a fuel output opening that is angled relative to the input opening for exiting the fuel at an angle that is oppositely directed from the device angle to the inlet pipe's inner surface. In this manner, the angled ouptut opening compensates for the angled device and sufficiently inhibits problematic back splashing.
