I've never seen anything other than a black / green diesel pump handle.

Yellow is e85 aka hipster turbo fuel.

I take offense to that.

Around here most places have black handles for gas, green for diesel. BP is opposite. Those Brits have to be different.

i was putting gas in my wifes car at krogers once and grabbed the diesel nozzle. thank god they make it so much bigger than the gas nozzle. those damn puny gas nozzles are way too light too i always jerk them away from the pump because im used to the heavy ones.

I know it's a stupid mistake but sometimes your mind is elsewhere and you grab the wrong one
