The unknown liquid could have a low suface tension like may organic liquids. Also, the plunger of the pipet could be being pushed all the way down when extracting the liquid ( should be at first stop) so it leaks out before the transfer is complete. To avoid this, pipet some liquid in and blow it out by pushing the plunger all the way down (second stop). Then draw up some more of the liquid and it should not leak.

Possible reason why thomas edison horse powered minibus isn't bring used today?

The shrink ray used to make horses small enough to fit into the engine (going from life sized to 1/10 the size) was far more expensive than modern cars.
