Pumping DEF from same hose as diesel at truck stop

[GregWilson]

Yesterday I went to a truck stop to fill up my DEF tank from the dispenser. I was a little shocked to see that diesel and DEF were pumped from the same hose. I would think quit a bit of diesel is still in the hose when you start to pump DEF into your tank. I did not do it. Instead purchased a 2 1/2 gallon jug of it. Should pumping from the fuel pump be a concern?

Thanks

It's not from the same hose.....there's a separate hose w/nozzle for the DEF. You must have overlooked it.

I will go look again. That just did not make any sense to me. Thanks

Diesel fuel can be purchased for anywhere from $2.599 to about $2.849 fairly easily.

I didn't think that the Irving footprint was any further south than Mass. and I was going to question where the photo was.

Irving does have great winter fuel, best that there is.

Fuel has hit bottom and is on its way back up.. In SC it has gone from 2.40 to 2.70 in the last 2 weeks..
