Two guys standing at the pump at a Shell gas station. The guy at pump 2 holds up the gas pump nozzle to his ear and tells the guy at pump 1 “Apparently, if you hold a Shell pump to your ear you can hear the shareholders laughing at you”.

    I thought I recalled Premium and Regular being on differ hoses tho. Just from my brief tenure abroad

    Yeah even in the US diesel and E85 (eco fuel / ethanol) have different hoses and different larger nozzle sizes cause they can ruin an engine that doesn’t support them.

      Some engines require it yes, but it’s still the same fuel and mixing in a tiny bit of regular with premium is not the same as mixing a little bit of diesel with premium.
