In the 90s they charged us with an accident if they had to tow it.

If you put diesel in a gas truck, you could not go far enough to need a tow. Assuming you fueled on property.

Temember the color code. GREEN fo diesel. If all else fails, do some light reading. It's not that hard.

Actually it was a full tank of gasoline in a diesel international. The driver never started it up. Saw his mistake way too late and had them call the wrecker.

Remember the color code. GREEN fo diesel. If all else fails, do some light reading. It's not that hard.

I've had to dispose of about 600 gallons in the last 6 months due to people not being observant and not knowing a few salient facts at the fuel island.

As Miami Valley area families head out for spring break getaways, AAA urges drivers to be cautious when refueling vehicles at unfamiliar gas stations. AAA Tire & Auto manager Jason Brown says accidentally pumping the wrong fuel into your vehicle can lead to costly repairs.

Brown warns this can easily occur when a driver assumes a green nozzle at an unfamiliar station indicates the pump dispenses diesel fuel. While this is often true, it is not always the case. There are no legal requirements for fuel nozzle colors. Today, diesel fuel is dispensed through nozzles that may be green, black, yellow.
Listen to me people ---Green is NOT always diesel.

I once put gas in a diesel as an air driver covering a letter box pickup route.

We rarely drove diesels at the time and I gave my gas 3-cube to the shuttle driver at the meet point, drove the diesel back, and pulled up to the same gas pump I used everyday.

They tried to charge me with destruction of UPS property and make me fight for my job and pay the $6000 repair bill. I got lucky when the whole thing disappeared in a management change.

me too.

I've seen pumps that have 5 or 6 different blends of fuel. Their nozzle handles look like something out of a gay pride parade.

You gotta be careful cuz one may be labeled as e85, but identifies as blended biodiesel

See...diesel is yellow, green, and black.

I love Zoolander! That's like, one of my favorite movies.

Well, that is not correct.

Perhaps a smell test would be in order since the industry can't stick to a standard and nobody reads.
