    How'd I miss this?

    Brother put 5 gallons of diesel in his (mine later) high school beater car and we just let the car idle in the driveway until it ate the fuel. Put a gas can worth of gas and away he went.

    On the other hand a neighbor of my dads put gas in his brand new diesel. Ruined the truck.

    I can't imagine doing this to my Tacoma

    Good luck OP!

    You can remove the fuel cap too and don't forget to have a jumper box or cables handy if needed.. if you can get the level down to at least E then just refill with feesh gas, maybe do a fuel filter soon..

    It's supposed to be a industry standard. Black is gas, green diesel, yellow e85, blue kerosene. But some jack holes don't like standards. BP pumps near me have green unleaded, and yellow diesel.

    Apearantly rural Iowa has e85 on the same pumps with other gas... the only way to tell the difference between the e85 and e10 is the price... as both were marked as "89"

    a lot of them seem to be same size now.
    I own a TDI as well and almost put diesel in my taco when I first got it out of habit. picked up the diesel nozzle, but pushed the gas button which wouldn't allow selectin and noticed why.
