Ethanol ?
Where I buy my diesel I noticed on the diesel pumps it says "contains ethanol". I've never noticed this before, does all diesel contain ethanol? Is this a type of bio-diesel?

I'll take a pic next time I fill up. But I think you might be right it used to be a gasoline pump and they just never took it off.
