Autovista automatic fuel dispenser by BP, Hertfordshire

Jan. 01, 1961 - Introducing The Autovista New Type of Automatic Fuel Dispenser by BP. A revolutionary new system for dispensing fuels at Service Stations was demonstrated to the press this morning by British Petroleum Company at Leavesden, Hertfordshire. The new system is designed by BP and is known as Autovista'. The car is served with whichever grade of petrol is required, including two strokes or Diesel, to the exact amount, controlled by an electronic circuit, which is preset. The driver can see on the automatic dial the exact amount, cost etc of the fuel being supplied so that he can, if he cares, ask for fuel to a prescribed amount. And when that cost is reached, or alternatively quantity is reached, the apparatus is automatically cut off. This eliminates waiting for change etc. The new unit can supply fuel at the rate of upto 15 gallons per minute. The unit demonstrated today is designed for use in Germany, where it will soon be seen. Keystone Photo Shows: View inside the garage during the demonstration this morning as a car receives a pre-set amount of selected fuel.
