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!

    Here in Texas most of the gas pumps have two or three notches for the latch to go in, so the speed is adjustable. It seems to me like the highest setting is usually pretty close to just holding down the handle at full blast, minus a little bit of play in order to get the latch into and out of the notch.
