ABSTRACT:
An article of manufacture for use with automatic gas dispensing nozzles of the type having a handle and having an actuating lever. Typically the actuating lever is curved to be grasped by the user's fingers. In full service stations a latch is provided on the handle for latching the actuating lever in any one of three different positions wherein there are different rates of flow from the nozzle to accomodate different types of cars. Typically the nozzle shuts off automatically when the tank fills up. The article is used at self service pumps with nozzles not equipped with such a latch. The article is a holder member, preferably of triangular configuration, shaped to fit between the curved part of the actuating lever and a part of the nozzle handle to hold the lever in actuated position. The article is shaped to have three positions for holding the actuating lever, in any one of its three operating positions.
