Reason for this review: ARCO gas nozzles!!! Sorry Nick, I chose your location because you're one of the two closest to my house. So for price and service and friendliness and all other purposes , Nick's is 5 stars plus! (I wanted to rate a big fat ZERO but don't want to hurt your individual business. My issue is with all Arco gas nozzles.
Nozzle acts like I have vapor lock almost every time I pump. Regardless of muscle used, angle, repeated adjusting, whether it's me or my adult son attempting the fill...It just simply will not pump properly. Pull handle..click..pull handle..click. Nozzle works at all other gas stations so it's not a tank or vehicle issue. I've even had a bystander AND an attendant another time attempt to assist me. Nay they had no luck either. Here's the clincher why ARCO nozzles rate a zero - After it finally wears out my normally mild-tempered, easy going and good mannered soul to the point of cursing at it way louder than what is publicly acceptable...I move to the next available pump and it works just fine. The next fill up I make sure to use the one that worked previously but it happens yet again! PLEASE FIX THIS POOR EXCUSE FOR NOZZLES!! And bring back the spring/clip that keeps the pump running hands free while you're at it. My hand starts aching by the time I get my tank full. I think the world of ARCO in every other way. I'm not changing stations ever. I do actually have way bigger things to worry about in my life so it took me 6 years after moving here to actually do a review, but it's only fair to the innocent patrons who have the unfortunate experience of parking next to the crazy middle-aged lady with the sailor mouth when gassing up! read more
