I have to admit that at my local filling station I now head for the same
pump every time, even though it is unleaded. The reason is that it is the
only pump I have found in the country that has not had the pin removed that
allows the nozzle to be locked open. In other words it is just like the US
and Canadian nozzles where you leave it hanging out of the car and it turns
off when it is finished. With my 100 litre tank it is a lot easier not
having to hold the trigger continuously.

Regards

Graham

P.S. I assume there is some reason why you never see the 'little pin' on
nozzles in this country, probably safety related, but how would this one
have escaped?
