Certainly my lawn mower petrol cans all hold more than the quantity
specified on the coutside. I suppose that's simply to allow you to put in
the exact, say 5 litres, and not have it splash everywhere.

Subject: [Healeys] Not Healey (Back to Gas)
Has anyone ever experienced putting 7.7 gallons of gas in a 7 gallon
container?
I took a 7 gallon container to get gas for my tractor and when it was full
the register said 7.7 gallons. I complained to the manager and he said the
State had just measured the pump register.
I have a feeling that sometimes we are being ripped off at the pumps while
we are being ripped off at the pumps.
Has anyone else experienced this??
Just curious.
