What is claimed is: 1. A funnel device comprising: a funnel wall, with an interior surface and an exterior surface, the funnel wall generally tapering from an inlet to an outlet; a spout located at the outlet; a reservoir defined generally by the interior surface of the funnel wall; a handle fixedly attached to the funnel wall, the handle located outside of the reservoir; a slideable trigger located on the handle, the trigger slideable with respect to the handle; an annular sealing surface located near the outlet on the interior surface of the funnel wall; a pivotable flapper lever, with a pivot point located generally at a first end of the pivotable flapper lever, rotatably attached to the interior surface of the funnel wall at the pivot point, the pivotable flapper lever having a flapper located generally at a second end of the pivotable flapper lever, and a line attachment point located between the flapper and the pivot point; a passageway in the funnel wall located generally proximal to the trigger; a line with a first end and a second end, the first end attached to the trigger, the second end attached to a line attachment point, and the line entering the reservoir from the trigger via the passageway; a spring attached to the interior surface of the funnel wall and the pivotable flapper lever, and configured to apply a force that tends to keep the flapper sealed against the annular sealing surface. 2. The funnel device of claim 1, wherein the spring is a torsion spring. 3. The funnel device of claim 1, wherein the line attachment point is located closer to the first end of the pivotable flapper lever than to the second end of the pivotable flapper. 4. The funnel device of claim 1, wherein the handle has an opening configured to allow a user's fingers to grasp the handle with the fingers going through the opening. 5. The funnel device of claim 1, wherein the handle comprises a grip member, ergonomically configured to fit a variety hand sizes. 6. The funnel device of claim 1, further comprising a flexible hose with a first end and a second, and wherein at least the first end is removeably attachable to the spout. 7. The funnel device of claim 6, further comprising a knob located on the handle configured to be removeably attached to at least the second end of the flexible hose. 8.
