Abstract

A dispensing nozzle for delivering fuel to selective fuel tanks has a control rod which must be displaced longitudinally by a restrictor plate in the fill tube of the fuel tank before the manual lever of the dispensing nozzle is effective to open the flow controlling valve of the dispensing nozzle. Thus, the introduction of one grade of fuel into a tank not having a restrictor plate and requiring a different grade of fuel is prevented.
