service station filler nozzles for refueling. Use of
smaller diamet er tubes (e.g., those used to siphon

devices can damage the area in and around the filler
opening.
The filler nozzle automatically stops to leave space in
the fuel tank so that fuel does not overflow as a result
of changes in air temperature.
