#1 Fuel nozzles have a vacuum tube that returns gasoline fumes/vapors from your car's tank back to the service station where it will condense into liquid fuel to resell. #2 Weights and measures tests gasoline dispensing at 5 gallons increments. A conniving gas station owner can set the dispensing flow meter over-measure to 4 gallons then slow down and be correct by 5. Results in an overcharge but still passes the certified test.
Seems like a bog standard graduated cylinder to me. Not sure what's so "special" about it. But then again this IS one of those AI slop narration videos...

ya know how much fuel goes in it if i fill it to the 'max' line?
around 10 litres give or take a couple of ml. exactly in line with the video. she would have been overcharged about half a fucking cent on that.
