the Flying J does something good.
A buddy of mine who lives over in south Jersey. Went to the flying hook to get a tank of diesel in his pick up truck. In the state of New Jersey they have to pump your gas for you but not the diesel. So he pulls up to the store part of it where the gas pumps are in the front. The big truck pumps are on the side. The gas pumper guy comes out and he says fill it up. Well he got a fill up alright off GAS and not diesel. By the way it was one of the pumps where it is gas and diesel at the same pump just 2 diff. nozzles.
He gets about 2 miles away and the truck started running like shit. Then he knew what happen. He called the J and started rising hell. The J sends a tow truck out and pays to replace the fuel pump and drain all of the fuel lines. Also got a coupon thing for 3 free fill-ups.

The same way aircraft fuelers will put Jet-A into an airplane that can only run on 100LL. The fuels are a different color, most airplanes have very clear lablels saying what kind of fuel to use.
They don't read, They don't ask, They are lazy, They care more about watching the game.
