The raised lip on the diesel fuel nozzle is meant to catch on the inside of a big rigs fuel tank. Most truck stops have a sattelite pump and hose to fill the tanks on the opposite side at the same time. The lip on the nozzle allows the nozzle to be unattended while the driver goes around to the other side. Been there -Done that as a retired over the road driver amongst my other careers.
