Please note, I am a newbie: I've owned the car for less than two weeks & yes I know how to use the search button
Regardless here is my question:
I filled up my car for the 1st time last night at a local South, FL Shell Station.
The station happened to have the combo Diesel/Gas Pumps under the regular car port. Thus, I filled up my Jetta there. However, I noticed they also had the 18wheeler pumps out back.
I noted that the pump I was filling up on had the 15ppm sticker. While walking to the 18wheeler pumps I noted a 500ppm sticker.
Does it make a difference which pump I use? Pros or cons for either 15ppm vs. 500ppm. I assume 15ppm is the NEW Diesel standard & is better?
In addition, due to living is South, FL anytime a Hurricane comes the only fuel available is Diesel @ Truck stops. This is due to the fact that every man / woman / & child / gets 55 gallon drums of gas to fill their SUV.
So if I am forced to fill up at a Diesel Truck stop, is that okay for my car?
Sorry for the more than likely dumbest question you've ever heard from a newbie...
Thank you in advance!
P.S. I don't think I can every own another "gasser"... 520 miles on 13 gallons of gas. 40MPG...A/C on 24/7 with 90+ Temps here in FL
