Anyone tried using a regular funnel instead of factory one for refueling from a gas can?

I've been using one of these for years for my power equipment, and carry it in my vehicle when I carry a can of gas.......

That's what that funnels for? I just used it to put 2 quarts of oil in my wife's junk-engined Kia the other night ?

I would guess it's the same diameter as a gas station nozzle. And probably goes in about the same depth or a little less.
.
"(f) Every retailer and wholesale purchaser-consumer shall equip all gasoline pumps from which gasoline is dispensed into motor vehicles with a nozzle spout that meets all the following specifications:

(1) The outside diameter of the terminal end shall not be greater than 0.840 inches (2.134 centimeters).

(2) The terminal end shall have a straight section of at least 2.5 inches (6.34 centimeters).

(3) The retaining spring shall terminate at least 3.0 inches (7.6 centimeters) from the terminal end."
