One other drawback with diesel is that many of us who service/troubleshoot our own gasoline engines don't have the facilities to deal with high-pressure injectors and the other diesel equipment.
By far the majority of gas stations here have been self-serve only for years. It's only the little village places where you might still find a pump attendant who will actually pump fuel for you.
