ABSTRACT:
A fuel pump nozzle anti-dribble device for mounting to the end of the nozzle on a conventional fuel delivery pump, such as a gasoline pump to eliminate dripping and spillage of fuel therefrom upon withdrawal of the nozzle from a vehicle fuel tank. The anti dribble device has a flap which is lightly spring loaded to the closed position to close off the flow area of the nozzle upon the shutting off of the nozzle. The flap is spring loaded so as to allow movement to an open position upon the turning on of the nozzle without tripping the automatic shut-off device normally found on such nozzles.
