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!

    They don’t pump slower. Here’s a video explaining how the handle works: https://youtu.be/fT2KhJ8W-Kg

    There is no way that the pump can detect the use of the latch and slow down (and why should it anyway).
