The three stars are for a leaking cap (a radiator cap at least, there is no rubber gasket. I bet gas caps work much better) and its instability when the funnel is full. This company must have a different seal, different. then onto a spring loaded plunger and optionally add a stand or strap to the hopper so you can lock the hopper in place to prevent it from tipping over.
