Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

Same diesel, different nozzles?

    but there was a truck behind me waiting to use it, so I guess some places try to find a happy medium.
    I certainly hope that it was a busy servo, the name you're thinking of was probably Amoco, it was originally started in the US and was first known as Standard Oil of Indiana and later American Oil Company, or Amoco, but is now part of BP. Providing the fuel is replenished regularly you should be alright but I would avoid filling at places like that if you can because you don't know what you're putting in. Hopefully all will be OK.

      Yes, very wise, Russ.

      Some of the ladies might be offended

      ... if they can stop giggling for a moment.

        Hi Karen,

        What there's ladies on here It's nice to hear that ladies are joining in on the forums and improving their knowledge of nozzles (large and small) you never know when it might come in handy.

          Thanks to all for the votes of praise. I must admit though, I'm not an expert on nozzles large or small, but I always aim to please

            There's some pretty interesting responses here... I see Russ is on fire as usual. Haha.


            I'm lucky. The orifice in the Caddy is -just- big enough to stick the tip of the high flow nozzle in and fill with no mess (Unless you pull out too early!), so i don't have an issue with either type.
