Those Sunoco pumps had a lead seal to prevent dialing past 260, but the stations near me cut off the seal- and sold "270" to us. The 270 was selling for 15 cents during a gas war here in 1961- we filled all the 5 gallon cans we could get our hands on! [I needed the 270 for the 13:1 Pontiac in my '60 Falcon]
