Does anyone have a good historical and technical timeline for gasoline stations/standards?
Just want to see how long it took for that and we can try to compare where we are with Electrical
was there the same battle of standards, like to have different pipe size for Premium, somewhat like they do for Diesel?
I know that people were buying gasoline in pharmacy stores at first... But to me it was like pharmacies... Gas stations on every corner.
I found somewhat good timeline references but can't find the history of standard fueling pistol or whatever that thing is called (I already started to forget gas station terminology, Yey!)
(for example http://www.nacsonline.com/NACS/Reso...2012/Pages/100PlusYearsGasolineRetailing.aspx)
it took almost half a century to get to self-service gas station! in 30s the first one was shutdown by fire marshal as fire hazard... Kind of reminds me the current mandate of expensive EVSEs...
