ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides for a holding device that is used for holding and maintaining a conventional gasoline pump in an opened position. The holding device consists of a retaining mechanism and a C-shape clamp. The retaining mechanism is used to provide for the holding device to be removably secured in the proximity of the opening of the gasoline fuel line of a vehicle. The C-shape clamp includes a back portion that is attached to the retaining mechanism. This C-shape clamp further includes a pair of identical arms extending from opposite ends of the back portion. This arrangement provides for the arms of the C-shape clamp to engage the lever and handle of a gasoline fuel pump and maintain the gasoline fuel pump in an opened position.
