Abstract

A method of dispensing a liquid including providing a liquid containing resilient storage reservoir, positioning the reservoir in the path of traction means of the vehicle and moving the vehicle so as to cause the traction means to run over at least a portion of the resilient liquid storage reservoir in a longitudinal axial direction to thereby urge liquid out of the reservoir while resisting substantial lateral expansion of said reservoir in front of said traction means. The method and reservoir may be employed to refuel a vehicle by connecting the reservoir with a fuel inlet of the vehicle. The reservoir is preferably composed of a resiliently deformable material. It is preferably elongated and has tapered end. The reservoir may advantageously have tread means on the upper surface and/or lower surfaces.
