While filling at a Flying J last week we found the driverside(port) pump nozzle was too large to fit our fill. The passenger side nozzle fit fine. Did not get a chance to check other pumps, but was wondering if anyone had noticed this(our fills are the same size on both sides)?

I'm thinking they're both the same size Dave....(on the pumps AND the coach).

I've had a time or two where I've had to wiggle with the nozzle to get it down the neck and I use a LOT of Flying J's.
Seems like those are the times I need to slow down and take a breath....read on!!

This last trip it was chilly and I was in a hurry and NOT thinking and stood in front of the pump when fueling.
Well, the pump kicked back and soaked the t-shirt,jeans and shoes I had on...so bad that I hustled in the coach and changed, then THREW AWAY the clothes.

Gotta be thinking all the time when you're around those high speed pumps...

Bob, we actually measured the nozzles and the port side was larger. The operator said it was to keep the gas coaches from putting in deisel-but does not make sense. They had a low sulfur sign but it should still fit, especially when they said all their fuel was low sulfur. Maybe it was just one pump!
