Abstract: An apparatus for dispensing a liquid, for instance gasoline and the like fuel to vehicles, especially in the manner of the so-called "full tank dispensation", includes a dispensing nozzle with a liquid level sensor at the tip end thereof and a circuit for receiving signals from the level sensor to control flow-out of fuel from the nozzle, the circuit issuing a signal to stop the flow-out in response to receipt of a fuel detection signal from the level sensor after a predetermined time period has lapsed, issuing another signal to recommence the flow-out and if it receives from the level sensor a signal indicating the absence of fuel.
