Will Gill · 19 Jun 2007 at 09:04

I use them if im filling up the vito, otherwise you get covered in horrible sticky diesel film all over your hand.

They're designed for searching anal cavities.

Ideal for diesel drivers.

Oh wait....

I once filled up my mates diesel car and bought that lovely diesel smell back into the car with me

What i'd like to know is... how do the diesel pumps always get covered in diesel? Do they poor a bit over their hands first?!

I've just moved from a diesel and my hands used to ALWAYS stink of it after filling up.

I see taxi drivers often use them, I guess some feel it would be unprofessional to stink the taxi out with diesel fumes.

Dogbreath · 19 Jun 2007 at 10:44

People don't let the diesel on the nozzle drip off into the filler after filling up, so when you hang the nozzle up it runs down onto the handle. Same thing happens on the petrol nozzles, but because petrol is so volatile it evaporates very quickly.

Dunno, most of the taxi drivers I've encountered in Bristol have been high on petrol fumes!

Sorry i meant brought lol, but the diesel was expensive too :eek:

Diesel pumps always seem to drip so I wear them if there are any paper towels to grip the trigger with.

ive never touched a diesel pump but i tend to only see bmw drivers wearing them, so i guess they have diesels

Only BMW drivers wear gloves at the petrol station.
Only BMW drivers tailgate
Only BMW drivers sit in the outside lane all the time
Only BMW drivers overtake in dangerous places

the last few i saw were bmw drivers

but what you said is all true

Jonny69 · 19 Jun 2007 at 12:07

I didn't see any of the Audi pit crew at Lemans wearing them while filling up at Lemans. They are all diesels.
