I'd bet money there is a much bigger problem with uncalibrated pumps. Most places require once a year each pump be calibrated, but like so many other things the government does, Weights & Measures is understaffed and underfunded.

I asked one of these guys, I ran into checking the pumps at a station where I was filling up. "How many pumps do you find giving too much gas?". He got a hearty laugh out of that question.
