Actually, EPA (I think it is EPA. One of the alphabet agencies, anyway) requires that ALL diesel nozzles be slightly larger than gasoline nozzles to prevent introducing diesel fuel into gas systems.

I wonder how consistent that is in reality?
I know at a gas station in Alabama, my cousin was able to fill her tank with diesel with no issue. Fortunately the clerk came running out before she started it up.
That also happened to a coworker here in PA... Our diesel nozzles at regular gas stations are the same size as the ones for gas, just green handled...
