Diesel Fuel Cap Stickers (to remind me its diesel!)

[dasmith83]

Hi all, i was wondering if any1 knows where i can get a sticker which would fit on my filler cap (the black one under the fuel flap), which would remind me to put diesel in?

Ive had a quick search on ebay and google, but didn't really have any joy.

Cheers in advance.

Dave

Open the door before you shut off the engine when you drive into the Petrol Station. You wont mistake your engine for a Petrol then!

Taxi!

Here's the 'tasteful' solution. Try playing the sound sample.

What is it that their actually getting at?

 

[bushybeaver]

What about a DIY job?

I just need to glance at the soot on the rear end and I know which pump to use.

Cheers m8, I did find the ebay one myself but it doesn't look like what i want. The other one you found is too large, 1" thick.

It is for me, Ive had a petrol for years and years and only filled my diesel up twice so far. I just want to make sure that i'll avoid any nasty experience

That diesel guard looks like a good idea, but i think i'll go with a DIY job and see if thats good enough.

Cheers guys

dont you know anyoneone with a 'Dyno ' label maker?

 

[redcupratdi]

that audible warning is funny!! how annoying!!

 

[IainW]

Is that the one Clarkson smashed to pieces on Top Gear and it still wouldn't shut up?

in short....No

I've gone for the DIY option and just used two pieces of black electrical tape (1 above, 1 below the part you hold to twist the cap) and then used a silver pen and written DIESEL on the tape...bit pants really, but it looks ok and should remind me, I can't avoid looking at it when i take the cap out so fingers crossed

I have a Dymo machine sat in my desk draw, pm me your address and I'll make a label and post it to you.

May even make myself one

This ok?

i'm havin similar thoughts, Vick's bout to change over to the darkside. and i'm sure after a hard night duty, the light comes on and low fuel warning "pings".
She'll pull in to a garage, get 3/4 tank of unleaded in, then shout BOLLOX very loudly

 

[Ol' Timer]

Touch wood, I've haven't had any problems so far remembering it's a diesel but I am a bit paranoid when I go to an unfamiliar filling station that I will select the wrong filler nozzle. I wish they would standardize on the colour. I always check and recheck before I pull the trigger.

Ol'timer I agree fully - I drove up to the Isle of Skye a couple of years back and up just past Glasgow I found a garage that had blue for diesel instead of black .. I have to admit I went and asked if it was just normal diesel.

Thanks for the offer m8, I may well take you up on that! I'll get back to you, as i've just thort of an idea which may work (use the work (Tesco) labelling machine for name badges! )
