    yup, done mentioned that one. With diesels at works from 1995 to 2012 models, we keep close tabs on what gets how much biodiesel, or what sulpher level when that change happened.

    I worked at a love's travel stop for 2 years, on the public side of the station( not professional drivers) the handle for unleaded gas and diesel were the same exact size at ½ nozzles. The hoses, swivels, and breakaways are all the same on a single pump. The other side, for truck drivers, had 1' nozzles.

    Like I told a lot of customers since I was the maintenance, if you doubt what you selected hang it up and redo it. Unlike in Oregon we were not responsible when the customers messed up. We were always required to have green for diesel no matter what. If we didn't have replacement nozzles we'd close the pump off.

    I've seen a few places where yellow is diesel, but all the gas nozzles are black
