Any way to tell the difference between petrol and diesel in a can?

petrol fumes make me want to puke

Aye. You can't beat the smell of good ole B100 though... yum!

Diesel stinks, and worse it carries on stinking for ages if you get any on your clothes or hands. Apparently diesel owners are incapable of filling a tank without splashing diesel all over the nozzle...

Na, it's just that when diesel spills, it hangs around for a while 'til it breaks down. When petrol spills (which it does), you don't notice on the nozzle because it almost instantly evaporates into the atmosphere as highly carcinogenic benzene and other volatile fumes

You, sir, are a connoisseur.

I've got a couple of flagons of 2002 Shell Optimax in the cellar. T'was a good vintage.

LOL

Quite simple really. Petrol smells like petrol and diesel smells like diesel. Assuming you've ever put either in your car you'll know whay it is.
