The product, in the report: Control handle to dispense gasoline at gas stations.
I was pumping gas into my 5 gallon can for my mower. I did not want to over-fill the can and if you leave the nozzle in too far you don’t get 5 gallon of gas so I was trying to look up at the pump meter and unknowingly pulled up the nozzle too far! I had gas going everywhere! It was only a few seconds but very scary. While holding the pump handle you are also controlling the flow of gas. I didn’t want to drop the nozzle and cause l a spark so it took a few seconds to get my other hand there to release the pressure of my fingers making the gas flow. Has to be a better design for dispensing gas. I am 69 years old and have filled the gas cans many 1 times but this is the first time this has happened to me. Don’t want it to happen again. I was not injured but one person pulling in with a cigarette next to my lane could have set it all off.
