When pumping gas, most stations around here (California) have a little latch you can push to dispense gas and let go of the handle.

… when you use that latch, does it pump slower? Is it supposed to?

I always feel like it does but figure it’s a reasonable question for here.

Thanks folks!

    The latch is mechanical for most pumps so probably no.

    Now, if you want a definitive answer you need to test this. Pump with or without the latch and with a timer. Compare!
