Has anybody restored a pump in Texaco Diesel? Is green the only color they had them in originally (c.1940s & 50s)? Thanks,Brian

Here are a couple I removed from a island in the early 90s Texaco diesel pumps link

Texaco Diesel Chief gas pumps were RED and Texaco Diesel Fuel #2 pumps were GREEN . Hope this helps. Daniel

(RED) DIESEL CHIEF 1940- FIRST PUT OUT WITH A WIDE SPRAY
(RED) DIESEL CHIEF L 1950'S-
(GREEN) DIESEL FUEL 2 1950'S-
(YELLOW) DIESEL CHIEF 1 1960'S- ?

Thanks Guys!

...Texaco Diesel Chief pumps were green at one point - I've got a photo of a cardboard poster that pictures one, somewhere...

I'm sorry I thought we were talking about pump plates. I believe I've seen them in white, green and red where they may have used an old Fire Chief pump, or same paint ?

Heres the only photo I have seen with pumps.They are Tok 300s with The green diesel fuel globe and, the red diesel chief sign..Picture is one from internet.

...the image I have shows a darker green pump with red Diesel Chief plates...no globe...

Neat Mark

Hard to find photos of the Texaco Diesel line.

Doug, I agree 100% .. Ive searched and searched.

In my experience -diesel when available at a retail level
ie at a s/s with f/c and s/c pumps the diesel was always
identified with a green color

Other installations such as farms etc one could find a
diesel pump in another color such as red

Generally diesel was identified by the green color
