HOW TO TEST NOZZLE-FIOWRATE: (Relerence RP500 8.6-l)
-Start the stopwatch and initiate the flow of fuel into an approved 5 gallon metal test container with the nozzle
in the full open position. Calculate the GPM.
-For standard gasoline nozzles check each hold open clip point to verify a minimum flow rate of 3 GPM
and the maximum flow rate of 10 GPM.
-For hi flow diesel nozzles check each hold open clip point io verify a minimum flow raie of 5 GPM; the
NO PRESSURE-NO FLOW ACTIVATION TEST INSTRUCTIONS (Reference RP500 8.6.3
1. Verify nozzle has a hold open device.
2. Verify dispenser is turned on.
3. Place nozzle spout into an approved metal test can.
