The article states " most unleaded filler nozzels are smaller than diesel nozzels and will fit into the filler holes of diesel vehicles " , derrrrrrr , ,,,,,,,,
Most refueling stations [ I refuse to call them service stations as they no longer actually provide service] have 2x diesel bowsers ,1with large nozzels fast flow for trucks and the other slim nozzle for cars so whats the problem ?
One of the main problems is COLOUR coding of the nozzels ,, black -black and black , The U.N. colour code for diesel storage and dispensing is YELLOW ,

G`day Pedro,
The add doesn`t say if it allows you to use ...........
A funnel
A jiggle siphon hose
A drum pump nozzle
A Tanami pump
Etc..... Etc...
It just says that you use the nozzle on the pump to open it. HUH ????
It must be just for city slickers. LOL :>)
Too sophisticated for us Bush Bums.
Scrubby.

Thanks for all the input and I will have some excellent questions to ask if I decide to have a look at one.
