1. The use of pumps, dispensers or other devices which are capable of withdrawing
gasoline from one tank containing gasoline and another tank containing motor oil and
dispensing them as a single combined product and of withdrawing gasoline alone from
the tank containing gasoline must be authorized if the Division of Measurement Standards
of the State Department of Agriculture determines that all the following conditions
exist: (a) The device mechanism accurately measures the quantities being simultaneously withdrawn
for dispensing as a combined product from each of the two tanks when the combined
product is dispensed, and the quantity being dispensed from the gasoline tank alone
when gasoline alone is dispensed. (b) The device mechanism accurately and visibly records and displays the ratio of
gasoline to motor oil, the quantity of each ingredient being dispensed, the price
per gallon for gasoline being dispensed and the price per quart for motor oil being
dispensed, or accurately and visibly records and displays the ratio of gasoline to
motor oil and the total volume of the oil and gasoline mixture delivered, and computes
the total cost based upon the price set for the finished blend. (c) The device mechanism prevents the changing of the ratio of gasoline to motor oil
during dispensing. (d) There is firmly attached to or painted upon the device mechanism panel a sign
or label plainly visible consisting of the words “two-cycle motor fuel” together with
the brand name or trademark of the product, all of which must be in letters not less
than one-half inch in height. 2. The provisions of this section authorize the operation of a blending type of pump
or dispenser connected to two tanks, one containing motor oil and the other gasoline,
but only if the motor oil in its separate state meets the specifications for lubricating
oil as required by NRS 590.080 and the gasoline in its separate state meets the specifications for gasoline as required
by NRS 590.070 .
