On many early gas pumps, there was a calibrated glass cylinder on top. The desired amount of fuel is pumped into the cylinder as indicated in the calibration. Then the pumping was stopped and the gasoline was released into the customer's tank by gravity. When the metering pumps came into use, a small glass globe with a turbine inside replaced the cylinder.
